Lifesaving Efforts
Geela's Lifelong Passion In Action!
For the Love of God charity CD
The song For the Love of God is a divinely inspired song containing a powerful and timely message of hope and unity written and performed by award-winning singer-songwriter-activist Geela Parish. Coming from a region which has never known peace, the epicenter of senseless violence, the volatile Middle East provided the inspiration for the song.
The song was featured as a charity CD for Operation Healing for the World & Giving with the Stars national awareness campaign, which was launched by Geela Parish as part of her advocacy efforts to advance the cause of nonviolence and peace. The song was recorded by such music icons as Patti La Belle and has been generating tremendous rave reviews.
“We need the inspiration of music to help fulfill the dream of peace and nonviolence while transforming the way we treat each other and our planet. That’s because peace is the only condition for survival in a nuclear age.” – Geela Parish

FOR THE LOVE OF GOD - LYRICS
It’s time to unite,
It’s time for our hearts to beat as one.
When we come together,
Things get better
For everyone.
And through many tears,
A flickering light will shine so bright.
And a new tomorrow,
Free of sorrow,
Will be here.
Chorus:
This is a time to believe –
In the miracle of life (love)
Healing our hearts,
For the love of God.
This is the time, yes, it’s the time,
For the world to live and love as one,
For the world to live as one,
It’s the only way to live as one,
For the love of God.
The road may be long,
We’ll learn how to walk by faith not by sight,
Turning into heroes,
Through the shadows,
Of fear and despair.
Through love we’ll survive,
And cherish the gift of love and life,
Let’s remind each other,
There’s no other,
World for you and I.
Chorus:
This is the time…
Bridge:
We can say a prayer right here, right now,
A prayer of peace for every one,
Let’s say a prayer right here, right now,
To share one life,
To share one life,
To share one light,
For the love of God.
(We are all children of God)
