Peace One Day

Peace


Imagine
by John Lennon


Imagine there's no Heaven

It's easy if you try

No hell below us

Above us only sky

Imagine all the people

Living for today


Imagine there's no countries

It isn't hard to do

Nothing to kill or die for

And no religion too

Imagine all the people

Living life in peace


You may say that I'm a dreamer

But I'm not the only one

I hope someday you'll join us

And the world will be as one


Imagine no possessions

I wonder if you can

No need for greed or hunger

A brotherhood of man

Imagine all the people

Sharing all the world


You may say that I'm a dreamer

But I'm not the only one

I hope someday you'll join us

And the world will live as one


This song by John Lennon, shows that there is hope for peace on this earth. If more or all of us are willing to do something or believe in peace, it will one day be possible. John Lennon then goes on to sing about no religion, no countries, no hell or heaven, no killing and no greed or hunger. In his opinion, these are the main factors which are causing war or preventing peace. Peace trancends any time period or culture as we all are looking for it. We may seem a long way from peace on earth, however it is possible. Peace is desired by all and the message of this songis for peace to prevail on earth.

Do you agree with this claim?
Why or why not?

I also agree that this is a very meaningful song
