People!
People, the time has come in this land
When the lion must lay down with the lamb
Brothers and sisters live side by side
Hold on to love, let its light be your guide

My people (My people, hold on)
Say it, say it, say it
(My people, hold on)
My people (My people, hold on)
Hold on to love (My people, hold on)
Hold on to one another

The Lord God said, "Love ye one another
Whoever does the will of the Father is my brother"
The hawk must fall, let the dove fly high
Hold on to love, let its light be your guide

My people (My people, hold on)
Say it, say it, say it
