for different things we sing

we sing for a world reconciled to God the Father,
we sing for the justice and mercy of the Lord,
we sing thanks to God for Gaia, Buddha and Mahomet,
we sing thanks to God for Christ and His Church,
we sing for freedom, we sing to set thy people free, Oh God,
we sing for hope, faith and love,
we sing for the hope of peace on Earth someday soon,
we sing for believers who pray for peace at noon,
we sing all day for joy and happiness,
For different things we sing….for different things we sing
