Tomorrow shall be my dancing day,
When peace will come and hearts will pray.
Through lands torn by conflict, pain and fear,
I bring the light that draws us near.

“Blessed are the peacemakers,” He said,
For they shall find the path ahead.
In Israel’s streets and Palestine’s plains,
I walk with love to heal the stains.

Tomorrow shall be my dancing day,
When unity will show the way.
In the UK, voices rise in strife,
Yet I call you to a new way of life.

“Love thy neighbour,” the Saviour’s plea,
To stand for truth, for you and me.
In Parliament’s halls and Gaza’s cries,
His words of peace must open our eyes.

Tomorrow shall be my dancing day,
When all are free and none shall stray.
In war-torn lands, my footsteps find,
The lost and broken, heart and mind.

For every child who fears the night,
I bring the hope, the strength, the light
In every prayer, in every tear,
My love shall wipe away your fear.

Tomorrow shall be my dancing day,
When peace shall bloom and wars decay.
I offer grace to all who call,
To heal the world, to heal us all.

“Come unto me, all ye who are weary,”
I bring a rest that’s bright and airy.
For in my arms, all wounds shall mend,
And love will lead us to the end.

Tomorrow shall be my dancing day,
When justice reigns and hate gives way.
In the land of pain, the promise grows,
That peace shall bloom where love bestows.

The hope is that, amidst the division and suffering, a message of peace, justice, hope and reconciliation remains.
