1st Verse

How can we have peace in the Middle East
When there's none at home?
How can we have understanding in the land
When there's none in the woman and there's none in the man?

Refrain

How can we heal the wounds of the world
If we cannot heal our own?
And where does this peace on earth begin
If not in the home?

2nd Verse

Where do we go now?
Do we let the devil win
Or do we get up and fight?
Surely we know how to conquer all our fear
Bring an end to the violence
Bring an end to the tears

Refrain

How can we heal the wounds of the world
If we cannot heal our own?
And where does this peace on earth begin
If not in the home?

Bridge

Well, there's too much talk about it
And too many walk without it
Where is the love?
Where is the God in your life?
To my left a woman abuses her children
To my right somebody's beating his wife
Tell me, where is the love?!!
Where is the God in your life?!!

Refrain

How can we heal the wounds of the world
If we cannot heal our own?
And where does this peace on earth begin
If not in the home?
