Also included are religious texts from the Bible, the Qur'an, St Francis of Assisi and Bahá'u'lláh, and the poetry of Shelley, Malory, Terry Waite and Carol Barratt. One line from the Persian mystic poet Rumi sums up the ethos of the work: 'All religions, all singing one song: Peace be with you'.

Scored for soprano solo, SATB chorus, optional SSA chorus, flute, guitar (acoustic, classical or fretless bass), strings & percussion, with optional soprano saxophone, brass, timpani, solo violin and organ/electronic keyboard. English & Latin text, with 'peace' in many languages.
