      Yes, I recorded this on my first album, too. That was a much more complex piece. During Mr. Bush’s stupid waste of life and treasure in Iraq, a friend of mine (Hi RCA!) and I worked on bringing more music to the peace marches in Portland OR. We reworked this piece so that it was better suited to having large numbers of people sing it together. That is in fact the purpose of this song; that many folks would sing it together. It should be considered not a prayer of plea and supplication, but rather a prayer of decree, with each of us declaring peace to now exist throughout the world as we sing.
