Peace songs

I wonder if anyone has any ideas...

I am looking for songs with a peace theme, preferably known and catchy for use at an interfaith 'prayers for peace', so could well be from other religions / countries. I am - thickly - drawing a complete blank at the moment.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

We were just discussing over dinner tonight the kind of songs we sang as kids at school like The Ink is Black, the Page is White. Very old fashioned now but made an impression on me

Make me a channel of your peace?

I love that one, niminy thanks for reminding me of it! All I can think of atm is "Give Peace A Chance", I think it's by John Lennon and the Plastic Ono Band.

The Finlandia hymn is absolutely lovely. Here are the lyrics:

"Down by the riverside" is one we used to sing when I was younger, and "Family of Man".

Lean on Me? Has peace related sentiment and is well known.

Like the late entries too - very good peacewise and more suited to interfaith. THank you!
