What good is the sun?
If there no sky above
Why should the rivers flow?
Why should a candle glow?
There'll be no peace without all men as one.
What could all the leaves?
If there no trees to grow
Why should a flower bloom?
Soon there may be no moon, oh no,
how can you know?
There'll be no peace without all men as one.
Well, there'll be no songs to sing, there'll be no songs to sing
Oh oh oh, there'll be no bells to ring
And you know, no shout 'til I will play
There will be no night and day,oh
There'll be no peace without all men as one.
Now, if time would stop
Then, why should clocks keep time?
Tell me, why should the wind lose chime?
And I want to know, why should fires burn? -I don't know
But I noticed
Whoa yeah, there'll be no peace without all men as one, yeah!
If there no sky above
Why should the rivers flow?
Why should a candle glow?
There'll be no peace without all men as one.
What could all the leaves?
If there no trees to grow
Why should a flower bloom?
Soon there may be no moon, oh no,
how can you know?
There'll be no peace without all men as one.
Well, there'll be no songs to sing, there'll be no songs to sing
Oh oh oh, there'll be no bells to ring
And you know, no shout 'til I will play
There will be no night and day,oh
There'll be no peace without all men as one.
Now, if time would stop
Then, why should clocks keep time?
Tell me, why should the wind lose chime?
And I want to know, why should fires burn? -I don't know
But I noticed
Whoa yeah, there'll be no peace without all men as one, yeah!

Lyrics & music by Sadye Shepard
Album: A Message From The People
The contemplative, and questioning, "There’ll Be No Peace Without All Men As One", is a pivotal track from Ray Charles’ 1972 album, "A Message from the People". The album takes stock in a post 1960s civil rights movement America, and features Robert Kennedy, Abraham Lincoln, Martin Luther King, and John F. Kennedy on the cover.
The song is a powerful commentary, which still resonates today.
In celebration of Ray Charles’ 90th birthday (2020), Tangerine Records, the label he founded in 1962, was proud to announce the release of “True Genius” the ultimate Ray Charles collection. Featuring 90 of his greatest songs and most important recordings of his legendary career, this newly remastered set includes all of his biggest hits.
