I wake up in the morning 
Grateful for another day
Open my window wide
Inhale the breeze and pray

I pray for me, and you
I pray for the wars to end
With all my heart I know
Only love will make us friends

I hope for seven billions
To feel true meaning of life
For them to live in peace
Rise above every strife

I wish everyone contentment
And strength to carry on
Happiness and fulfilment
With every breaking dawn
