The First Song Sung as The Last be Done . . .
 
Let there be Peace on Earth, and let it begin with me.
Let there be Peace on Earth, the Peace that was meant to be.

With God as our Father, brothers all are we,
Let me walk with my brother, in perfect harmony.

Let Peace begin with me, let this be the moment now.
With every step I take, let this be my solemn vow,

To take each moment and live each moment in Peace, eternally.
Let there be Peace on Earth, and let it begin with me.

☮,שלום ,سلام , ᏙᎯᏱ, Ειρήνη,صلح ,ᓴᐃᒻᒪᓯᒪᓂᖅ,平和,მშვიდობა
Бейбітшілік,평화, ಶಾಂತಿ, アプンノ,あぷんの, Парахатчылык,和平,☮

Thanks, Rez. This is a really nice song, we often sing it at my church. But what are those last 2 lines? :confused:

Here's the site where I found the word *Peace* in many language
[which is what each code-seeming word actually means]

I chose to use languages not based on our system of letters and numblers.

http://www.columbia.edu/~fdc/pace/

So very many languages - so very many ways to say *Peace*

If only we could *all* say it at the same time

If Only . . .

Hi Rez,

Thank you for clearing that up. At least we here try to say Peace all at the same time. :)
