We Are The Peace-Makers
We are the peace-makers
We are the dreamers of dreams
Walking on lively sea-breakers
Sitting by flowing, living streams.
World-movers and world-forsakers
On whom the crystal Light gleams
Yet we are the movers and shakers
Of an ending world, it seems.
With wonderful, meaningful ditties
And out of a fabulous story
We wake up the worlds great
cities
We fashion a Saviors glory.
One man with a dream, at pleasure
Has come to conquer a thorns crown
Then twelve with a new songs measure
Trampled a fallen empire down.
We, in the following ages vying
To keep buried the past of the earth
Stand to face adversity without sighing
Creating a crystal city with our mirth
