Movement VIII - Peace

(앨범: Paul McCartney's Liverpool Oratorio - 1991)

[Shanty:]
And so it was that you were born
Into this world one winter morning
With a childish innocence you smiled at me
And I was born again

[Boy solo:]
Non nobis solum
Sed toti mundo

[Boys' choir:]
Nati
Mundo nati

[Boy solo:]
Toti mundo nati

[Men's chorus:]
God is good
And He will be our savior
All we need
Is in His power to give us
Let the light that lies within
His heart
Illuminate our being

[Full chorus:]
God is good
And with this thought to guide us
We will live
In joyful contemplation
Let the love that lives within your heart
Illuminate your being

[Preacher:]
What people want is a family life
The strength of a home and a moat round the castle
Pull up the drawbridge
Staying at home with the family

All people want is a family life
Sometimes they find that it isn't so easy
People can argue
Life can be hard on a family

[Basses:]
Mum's in the kitchen, she won't speak to Dad

[Altos:]
Uncle's ashamed of the good time he had

[Tenors:]
Brothers and sisters are lifting the roof
With the music they play all night

[Preacher:]
But people still want a family life
Nothing replaces the love and affection
Pull up the drawbridge
Tempers are frayed, but it's like that

[Altos:]
Don't be dismayed if it's like that

[Basses:]
Like that

[Preacher:]
You're not obeyed but you like that -family life

[Boys and altos:]
God is good
In Him we'll live for ever
Satisfied
Inside His grace and glory

[Full chorus:]
Safe and sound
In His eternal love
We have found salvation

[Nurse:]
Dad's In the garden, he won't speak to M

[Mary Dee:]
Mother

[Nurse:]
Uncle's in bed with a pain in his

[Shanty:]
The Devil is evil

[Preacher:]
And God is good

[Mary Dee:]
The Devil is evil

[Shanty:]
With a D

[Mary Dee:]
And God is good

[Shanty:]
Without an O

[Mary Dee and nurse:]
God is good without an O

[Shanty and preacher:]
O

[Mary Dee and nurse:]
And so we are grateful for harmony
For we will be faithful

[Shanty and preacher:]
Eternally

[Mary Dee, nurse, Shanty and preacher:]
(Ah)

[Full chorus:]
(Ah)
God is good
The universal savior
Trust in Him
To lead us through the darkness
Live in love and when the battle's won

[Mary Dee and nurse:]
Live in peace

[Shanty and preacher:]
Live in peace

[Full chorus:]
Live in peace for ever

[Solo quartet:]
Live in peace

All live in peace together

[Shanty:]
So on and on the story goes
From day to day throughout our lives

[Mary Dee:]
What can we do
That's how it grows
I am with you

[Mary Dee and Shanty:]
Our love survives
