No Wars Will Stop Us Singing - World Peace Day
Cleveland Road Primary School ChoirLanguage: English
Ugly sounds are overhead,
And the streets are coloured red.
Young lives lost every day,
It’s always been that way.
But we believe one day we’ll see,
A world at peace, in harmony.
And that is why we say…
No wars will stop us singing,
Our voices will stay strong.
Even through the darkest night,
We must sing our song.
No fear will stop us dreaming,
Our dreams will light the sky.
Even when all hope is gone,
Our dreams will not die!
We are the future (are the future)
We are tomorrow (..are tomorrow)
We are the peace that you all crave (all crave)
If our lives are taken we’ll sing from beyond the grave..
No wars will stop us singing
Our voices will stay strong.
Even through the darkest night,
We must sing our song!
We will sing, we will sing,
We will sing our song!
And the streets are coloured red.
Young lives lost every day,
It’s always been that way.
But we believe one day we’ll see,
A world at peace, in harmony.
And that is why we say…
No wars will stop us singing,
Our voices will stay strong.
Even through the darkest night,
We must sing our song.
No fear will stop us dreaming,
Our dreams will light the sky.
Even when all hope is gone,
Our dreams will not die!
We are the future (are the future)
We are tomorrow (..are tomorrow)
We are the peace that you all crave (all crave)
If our lives are taken we’ll sing from beyond the grave..
No wars will stop us singing
Our voices will stay strong.
Even through the darkest night,
We must sing our song!
We will sing, we will sing,
We will sing our song!

Lyrics written by Don Black
Music composed by Debbie Wiseman -
“This moving anthem offers hope against the back-drop of continual war throughout the world where children needlessly suffer and die.
This contemporary song has been translated into several different languages and has become a national 'anthem' sung by thousands of young people on World Peace Day -- September 21st.
I hope that you understand the way I feel about ‘No Wars Will Stop Us Singing’.
It is a great song for young people like me to bite back at all the people who think war is right”.
