A message spelled out in candlelight lit up the evening in Stanford University's White Plaza.

A wise person said: The Biblical injunction of an eye for an eye is savage enough, But Israel's offensive seems to follow the logic of an eye for an eyelash.

Peace in the World

Tune: All through the Night

Lives are lost a people damaged
Terror unfurled
Revenge and blame will never get us
Peace in the world
While the nations grieve in sorrow
Together we must build tomorrow
Combine our strength and join our call for
Peace in the world

Women work with determination(for)
Peace in the world
Tell our leaders and our nations
Peace in the world
We need love and trust and kindness
No more fighting no more blindness
Children are the ones we strive for(and)
Peace in the world
