“Peace and Love” is a plainspoken hymn to everyday goodness—asking for the simple things that make a life: kindness, sunlight, a steady walk, and the courage to keep going. Verse by verse, it widens from affection for “people like you” to a broader moral compass—strength, memory of right and wrong, and faith that holds when the highs and lows trade places. The bridge (“easy come, easy go”) grounds the optimism in lived reality, so the closing refrain rings earned rather than naïve. Warm, unhurried, and quietly resilient, “Peace and Love” is a song about choosing what matters—and choosing it again tomorrow.

Peace and Love

Words and music ℗ 2019, 2025 John Kline (BMI)

Give me peace

Give me love

Give me all the things the world needs more of

Like people

People like you

Give me dogs

Playing and laughing in the sun

I think I’ll put on my new shoes and walk, don’t run

And life is good

Full of wonder

For all of us

How many times we’ve wanted more

And we begged God for it

Easy come easy go

Get a little high, get a little more low

Give me strength to carry on

(Don’t) forget about what’s right and what is wrong

Oh and give me faith

Give me faith

In something, oh oh…

Give me vision

Give me light

And let me not go down without a fight

And nothing will be too much for my faith

Oooooooooooooooooooooooooooo 😉

And nothing will be too much for my faith
