Looking for songs about peace and justice....They can be new or old, with or without choruses. What are your favorites? Thanks for any suggestions.

"Father Have Mercy on the Souls of Your Children"
    by Craig Hammond

Father have mercy on the souls of your children
Lord have mercy on us all.
Show us true gentleness, brotherhood and righteousness.
Guide our foot-steps on the path.
Guide our foot-steps on the path.

In these days of reckoning a new world is beckoning
Justice must be our one desire
And in this troubled hour bestow our lives with power.
Help us to redeem this cut and bleeding earth.
Help us to redeem this cut and bleeding earth.

Open up the hearts of man and let your healing light shine in.
Grant our quest for unity.
Peace and harmony with people from across the sea.
One world full of love and hope.
One world full of love and hope.

repeat first verse.

Check out my "Safe Home" and "We Belong to the World," available at http://homepage.mac.com/sandraandina for download. If you have trouble finding them, e-mail me and I'll send them. "Get Together" is always a good bet, as is Cooper, Nelson & Early's "Let Peace Prevail."

Jerusalem, by Steve Earle. One of my favorite recent songs of peace, justice, and hope.
