Gonna light a little fire, love is the word
Gonna climb a little higher, to the top of the world
Gonna sing a little louder until we are heard

I wanna tell you that it's time for peace and freedom

Gonna sing to my sisters, gonna ring like a bell

Gonna shout to my brothers, got stories to tell
Gotta wake each other from under the spell
'Cause we know that it's time for peace and freedom


No God above us would reign on lovers
Or watch as children, they get torn from the mothers

No God above you, no God who loves you
Would smile down on this misery
If there is peace and there is freedom


Gonna light a little fire for the helpless and weak
Gonna climb a little higher for the ones who can't speak

Gonna sing a little louder until we are free
We all know that it's time for peace and freedom
We know that it's time for peace and freedom


No God above us would reign on lovers
Or watch as children gettin' torn from the mothers

No God above you, no God who loves you
Would smile down on this misery
If there is peace and there is freedom


(Time for peace and freedom)
x 2


Just wanna hear you say
(Time for peace and freedom)

Come and say it with me
(Time for peace and freedom)
x 2
