With these words, Pete Seeger sang of hope and love.
Oh, had I a golden thread
And a needle so fine
I would weave a magic spell
Of rainbow design…
In it, I would weave the courage
Of women giving birth
And in it I would weave the innocence
Of the children of all the earth
Children of all the earth
Won’t you show my brothers and sisters
My rainbow design
‘Cause I would bind up this sorry world
With hand and my heart and mind….
