Happy holidays

From the staff at Inside PA

In 1955, Jill Jackson-Miller and Sy Miller first shared the lyrics and melody for this song at an inter-faith, multi-cultural camp for teens in California.

Since then, the message has traveled around the world and the song has been recorded by vocalists of all musical genres.

Whether the message is sung at a family dinner or a community buffet, during a service of faith or around a camp fire, it is a message that reminds us that peace — in our lives, our families, our nation and our world begins with each of us. PA

“Let There Be Peace On Earth” Lyrics by Jill Jackson-Miller and melody by Sy Miller

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 as our father Brothers all are we. Let me walk with my brother In perfect harmony.

Let peace begin with me, Let this be the moment now. With every step I take Let this be my solemn vow. To take each moment and live Each moment in peace eternally. Let there be peace on earth And let it begin with me.
