DO YOU WANT PEACE?                              Laura Sandage c2003

up-tempo Gospel style 4/4


VERSE 1
There is one big question
We all must ask ourselves
Would we rather build a heaven together
Or fight our way to hell?
You got a devil on your shoulder
With those big ideas he sells
If you want to, you can leave him be
And put your money on the angels

CHORUS
Do you want peace or do you wanna be right?
Do you want love or do you wanna fight?
You wanna celebrate
Or would you rather have an altercation?
Do you wanna build or do you wanna tear down?
Are you gonna smile right now or frown?
You will make your choice
For destruction or creation

VERSE 2
This question is so simple
But we ain't doin' too well
We think that peace is far away
Like a distant ringing bell
But you know what peace looks like        
You love its taste and smell        
You just reach inside your deepest heart
Bring the bucket up from the well

BRIDGE
Do you want peace (peace peace)?
Do you want love (love love)?
Do you want joy to shower you from above?
There's no more fighting to be done
When you see yourself in everyone
You don't care who wins
You've suddenly had enough

CHORUS
(Last line repeat: For togetherness or separation)
