I'll second "Song of St. Francis," also aka "Lord, make me an instrument of thy peace." My tri-Hi-Y club did this in high school -- actually, we did a lot of great songs: I've been trying to track down "The House I live In" -- Josh White or Sonny Rollins versions, not Frank's; not that it's bad. (Yeah, I'll have to go check the DB.) We did "Let there be peace on Earth," too. (and yes, we won the competition all four years. a lotta good singers in that group of old buddies.)

I've been playing Phil Ochs' "Power and Glory" to and for myself.

At my UU church this a.m. we sang the children out after their story, as usual, with

Go now in peace
Go now in peace
May the spirit of love surround you
Everywhere, everywhere, you may go.

This one was ne to me, and I already forgot the tune -- sung to the children to let them know we will keep them safe:

Circle Chant

Circle 'round for freedom, circle 'round for peace
For all of us imprisoned, circle for release
Circle for the planet, circle for each soul
For the circle of our children, keep the circle whole.
noted Linda Hirschhorn, 1982, presumably copyrighted.

This one may or may not be in the UU hymnal; we all know it so well we never need a book: anyway, it's by Ruth Pelham, 1982(c), and is among my favorites:

Turning of the World

Let us sing this song for the TURNING of the world
That we may TURN as one
With every voice, with every song, we will move this world along
And our lives will feel the echo of our TURNING.
