Power - Peter, Paul and Mary

Just give me the warm power of the sun

Give me the steady flow of a waterfall

Give me the spirit of living things as they return to clay

Just give me the restless power of the wind

Give me the comforting glow of a wood fire

But won’t you take all your atomic poison power away

Everybody needs some power I’m told

To shield them from the darkness and the cold

Some may seek a way to take control when it’s bought and sold

I know that lives are at stake

Yours and mine of our descendants in time

There’s so much to gain and so much to lose

Everyone of us has to choose
