LYRICS: HUM-ALLAH-HUM-ALLAH-HUM-ALLAH
Peace is a united effort for co-ordinated control
Peace is the will of the people and the will of the land
With peace we can move ahead together
We want you to join us this evening in this universal prayer
This universal prayer for peace for every man
All you got to do is clap your hands
One two three
One two three
One two three
One two three
Hum-Allah, hey
Hum-Allah, hey
Hum-Allah, hey
Prince of peace won't you hear our pleas
And ring your bells of peace
Let loving never cease
Prince of peace won't you hear our pleas
and ring your bells of peace
Let loving never cease
Hum-Allah, hey
Hum-Allah, yeah
Hum-Allah, hey
Hum-Allah
