Love is but a song we sing
And fear's a way we die
You can make the mountains ring
Or make the angels cry
Though the dove is on the wing
And you need not know why

Come on people, now
Smile on your brother
Everybody get together
Try to love one another right now

Some will come and some will go
We shall surely pass
When the one that left us here
Returns for us at last
We are but a moment's sunlight
Fading in the grass

Come on people, now
Smile on your brother
Everybody get together
Try to love one another right now

Come on people, now
Smile on your brother
Everybody get together
Try to love one another right now

If you hear the song I sing
You must understand
And hold the key to love and fear
All in your trembling hand
Just one key unlocks them both
It's there at your command

Come on people, now
Smile on your brother
Everybody get together
Try to love one another right now

Oh , come on people, now
Smile on your brother
Everybody get together
Try to love one another right now

Come on people, now
Smile on your brother
Everybody get together
Try to love one another right now
Right now, right now
