“I Wonder What Would Happen To This World” by Harry Chapin is the Royal Peace Song of the Day for 9/24/2011. If activists and peace folks wanted to sing a hymn in harmony, this would probably be the song for it.
Excerpt:
Now if a man tried to take his time on Earth
And prove before he died
What one man’s life could be worth
Well, I wonder what would happen to this world?
There is a Youtube video of one of the annual concerts that is dedicated to keeping Harry Chapin’s work alive. See the Harry Chapin Tribute video here for clips of great Harry Chapin covers, and a link to Long Island Cares, an organization that feeds the hungry on Long Island.
