There was a Time, so long ago,

When our lovely Earth was new,

That God created flowers and trees,

And rocks, and things that grew.

Water, Sun and Moon were there,

And mighty were the winds;

The snow fell thick, the ice was hard,

Yet still the growing things

Continued on their Living paths

Their destiny to find….

‘Twas then the Creator of all that’s good

Created human-kind.

He breathed His Life, and breathed His Peace

And All-That-Was, was done,

And He poured His Love into every soul,

And every soul became One.

Relatives together sharing Life

As if t’would never cease;

So great were the wonders, all God-given

Of Life and Love and Peace.

And every Spirit in every Life

Gave out a grateful loop,

And those loops were joined together

And were made a Sacred Hoop.

These Sacred Hoops all joined as One,

Encircled our beautiful land,

But who caused this Hoop to be broken?

It was broken by man’s own hand.

We’ve forgotton the lessons of All-That-Was

When our lovely Earth was new,

When our World knew nothing of boundaries,

When our love for our Creator grew.

We now ask that we’re given World-wide Peace…

But He gave us that Peace---can’t you see?

If there’s to be Peace among us again,

It is US that must bring it – not He!

In our hearts, and our minds….we did it in Berlin –

We pulled down that wall. But the fame

Was not that the wall was brought down, but

That we acted together again.

We must try to repair the Sacred Hoop

Because all of Life is One.

We must bring Peace to our lovely Earth

As it was when our Life was begun.
