For Pete's Sake, Sing!

For Pete's Sake, Sing! CD

For Pete's Sake, Sing! chords

There's a beacon of light that's shining
From a place where music plays
Up north of New York City
Where the river flows both ways

There's a voice that keeps on giving
Less loud, but just as strong
As years ago, it's still aglow
Like a newborn peaceful song

And it's up to us to keep on
Hammering its tune
So justice rings through everything
And peace will be here soon

CHORUS:
Oh, sing it for Pete's sake
Yeah, sing it for your own
For everyone, so much at stake
You know you're not alone

Sing out so that hearts awake
Sing for every living thing
Sing it clear so there's no mistake
For Pete's sake, sing!

You can march out in the streets now
Hoist up the sails
You can strike out on the picket line
Knowing love never fails

Let the music be the wind now
That keeps your boat afloat
Carry it on, hope is never gone
When chances seem remote

(CHORUS)

See that golden thread
That weaves through us as one
I swear it's not too late
And we've really just begun

(CHORUS)
For Pete's sake, sing!
For Pete's sake, sing!
For Pete's sake, sing!
