ONE FAMILY UNDER GOD Intro:Am F C G

Land of the Morning is the English translation commissioned by the American colonial government in the 1920s. The song was translated from the Spanish by CamiloOsias and A.L. Lane.

Land of the morning Child of the sun returning With fervor burning Thee do our souls adore.

C G Am Em Here we stand together one in our humanity F C For we all come from the Father Bb G We are one family C G It's our school of love and peace F Em Am Where we've learned there's a way F C For the world to live in harmony Bb G And together we all say...

Land dear and holy, Cradle of noble heroes, Ne'er shall invaders Trample thy sacred shores.

Chours: Am F C G This is where peace begins Am F C G Here we sow the seeds of love Am F C G It all starts with our knowing Am F We are one family C G C We are one family under God

Ever within thy skies and through thy clouds And o'er thy hills and seas; Do we behold thy radiance, feel the throb Of glorious liberty.

Thy banner dear to all hearts Its sun and stars alright, Oh, never shall its shining fields Be dimmed by tyrants might.

Beautiful land of love, oh land of light, In thine embrace 'tis rapture to lie; But it is glory ever when thou art wronged For us thy sons to suffer and die.

C G Am Em Not just body but spirit , On and on we try to be F C Bb G People who live for others , For love knows no boundaries C G F Em Am Neither race nor religion , No barriers can keep us apart F C Bb G Forgiveness, true understanding ,This is how it all starts... Repeat Chorus
