After I heard Karen McKay’s song, I wrote the 2nd and 3rd verses. The students at the Maxwell International Baha’i School in Canada, where Jane and I worked from 1992-97, loved to sing this song.

lyrics

1. When every woman in the world has her mind set on freedom,
When every woman in the world sings a sweet song of peace,
When every woman in every nation, young and old,
each generation,
Holds her hand out in the name of love, there will be no more war.

2. When every man in the world decides to stand up for justice,
When every man in the world dreams a great dream of peace,
When every man in every nation, young and old, each generation,
Holds his hand out for equality, there will be no more war.

3. When all the youth around the world tell everybody
about oneness,
When all the youth around the world dream a real dream
of peace,
When all the youth in every nation say, "Hey, it is our generation
That can move the world and improve the world,"
there will be no more war.
