SONG OF PEACE
By Roaring Lion
Performed by NYU Steel
Directed by Josh Quillen
Mankind has become so mean and depraved
Whose sole aim is killing but never to save
Day after day he is declaring war
Without even knowing what he’s fighting for.
Where is the peace, freedom and peace?
We conquered facism but still have no peace
Where is the peace, freedom and peace?
We all fought for victory but still have no peace.
We were told that for freedom, peace and liberty
We must fight to the death to gain victory
So we fought like the Trojans who defended Troy
Believing thereafter true peace we‘ll enjoy
Where is the peace, freedom and peace?
We all fought for victory but still have no peace
Where is the peace, freedom and peace?
We all fought for victory but still have no peace
Signs and wonders were predicted before
The nations ‘gainst nations, rumours of war
Starvation, diseases and heinous crimes
Murdering babies, all signs of the time
Where is the peace, freedom and peace?
We all fought for victory but still have no peace
Where is the peace, freedom and peace?
We all fought for victory but still have no peace
Mankind had lost all contact with the Lord
The rulers of this earth do things they abhorred
But now is the time to sheathe thy sword
Repent, confess, and make peace with the Lord
Where is the peace, freedom and peace?
We all fought for victory but still have no peace
Where is the peace, freedom and peace?
We all fought for victory but still have no peace.

Blessed is all of creation
Blessed be my beautiful people
Blessed be the day of our awakening
Blessed is my country
Blessed are her patient hills.
Mweh ka allay!
