About the Song
An incredible song about true power and how we can all work together for peace.
The Living Spirit of God ("ruah") is the true power - not the worldly kind of power and authority that attempts to force its way over others or build itself up.
Thank you, Debbie: we need your message more than ever today.
Lyrics
Not by might
And not by power
But by spirit alone (“ruach!”)
Shall we all live in peace (repeat)
GF CG / CD G / GF G / D G
Instrumental (3-2-3 beats): C--F-G-- (2x)The children sing
The children dream
And their tears may fall, but we’ll hear them call
And another song will rise
Another song will rise
Another song will rise!
CF G / CF G / Am - / F G / / F - G - /
(tag) Not by might, not by power, shalom!
