Lyrics :

Now I've been happy lately,
thinking about the good things to come
And I believe it could be,
something good has begun

Oh I've been smiling lately,
dreaming about the world as one
And I believe it could be,
some day it's going to come

Cause out on the edge of darkness,
there rides a peace train
Oh peace train take this country,
come take me home again

Now I've been smiling lately,
thinking about the good things to come
And I believe it could be,
something good has begun

Oh peace train sounding louder
Glide on the peace train
Come on now peace train
Yes, peace train holy roller

Everyone jump upon the peace train
Come on now peace train

Get your bags together,
go bring your good friends too
Cause it's getting nearer,
it soon will be with you

Now come and join the living,
it's not so far from you
And it's getting nearer,
soon it will all be true

Now I've been crying lately,
thinking about the world as it is
Why must we go on hating,
why can't we live in bliss

Cause out on the edge of darkness,
there rides a peace train
Oh peace train take this country,
come take me home again

I am a christian, and love this man - just remember my muslim brothers and sisters there will always be enemies of peace like the last comment, we are all Gods creation, but there are some that serve satan and will never want peace..

I love this song. But the peace we seek to find is waiting deep within us beneath the layers of hate stupidy greed etc, we have been feeding - sometimes even during our good intentions. Buddha taught: "No two lands are ever good or evil of their own accord - it all depends on the causes being made by their occupants at any given time." Our whole planet is in bad shape & we are living on it at this crucial time, so who else can we blame but ourselves?..:o))

Yusuf Islam said: "Salman Rushdie must be killed. The Q'uran makes it clear - if someone defames the prophet, then he must die."

(Source: Philadelphia Inquirer, February 24, 1989, p.5A)

Yusuf Islam is a two-faced phony who talks about peace one day, and calls for murder the next.

[alelmnoor]

Badmanwithin, do you think it is enough to believe that you are God's creation but not worship him and follow his guidance. May be you are apeaceful person, but tell me how you will solve the problems in this world by being so peacful and not caring about others like god asks us. May god guide you

He's actually an Englishman, azeraminia29. Type in Yusuf Islam into your searchbox, go to Wikipedia. Read about him; it's an interesting story.
