the leaf and the twig and the branch and the trunk
the roots and the soil and the water and sun
it all comes together as we circle around

the mother, her child, her son and her daughter
the teacher, the pupil, integrity, honor
it all comes together as we circle around

our traditions, our past, our future, our hope
our community, our faith, our gifts and our strength
it all comes together as we circle around

    as we circle around - together we're one
    as we circle around - joy within us
    as we circle around - hope unties us
    as we circle around - love unites us
    as we circle around - peace calls us
    to circle around - until each one is home
    it all comes together as we circle around

I don't know how I missed this.  I really like this imagery.  Is this a song?  THere seems to be a chorus.

Let there be peace on earth
And let it begin with me
Let There Be Peace on Earth
The peace that was meant to be

With God, our Creator
Children all are we
Let us walk with the other
In perfect harmony...

Let peace begin with me
Let this be the moment now.
