Id like to build the world a home

And furnish it with love

Grow apple trees and honey bees

And snow white turtle doves

Id like to teach the world to sing

In perfect harmony

Id like to hold it in my arms

Various Artists

And keep it company

Id like to see the world for once

All standing hand in hand

And hear them echo through the hills

For peace through-out the land

Thats the song I hear

Let the world sing today

A song of peace that echoes on

And never goes away

Id like to build the world a home

And furnish it with love

Grow apple trees and honey bees

And snow white turtle doves

Id like to teach the world to sing

In perfect harmony

Id like to hold it in my arms

And keep it company

Id like to see the world for once

All standing hand in hand

And hear them echo through the hills

For peace through out the land
