The Story:
Let me take you down a dusty road in aids ravaged Africa to watch a little girl struggle 10 miles for help from her nearest doctor.


The Tipperary Song of Peace 2006

LET ME FIND PEACE
© Rob Russell Davies 2006

CHORUS: (Girl)
Let me find peace
Won't you kneel down and pray with me
And make me strong now
Won't you help me to fight this disease raining down on the land that I love
Let me find peace
Find peace
I pray

VERSE: (Narrator)
I watch her struggling down the dusty old dirt road
A little girl whose walked ten miles since she left home
With a metal guitar she made herself
Gently strumming the chords
She sings this hymn as she comes for my help...

CHORUS: (Girl)
Let me find peace
Won't you kneel down and pray with me
And make me strong now
Won't you help me to fight this disease raining down on the land that I love
Let me find peace
Find peace
I pray

MIDDLE: (Narrator)
Now the girl is in the line waiting so patiently
Ands she looks past the nurses and stares straight at me
So I smile, today it's good news and she sees it in my eyes
The drugs have made it to us so I can keep her alive...
Another month, another year?
Maybe more...

LAST CHORUS: (Together)
(Instrumental)
Maybe more...
Won't you help me to fight this disease raining down on my land, Africa
Let me find peace
Find peace
Let me find peace
Find peace
I pray (x 3)
