Lyrics:

If I had a hammer 
I'd hammer in the morning 
I'd hammer in the evening
All over this land 
I'd hammer out danger
I'd hammer out a warning
I'd hammer out love between all of my brothers 
All over this land 

If I had a bell 
I'd ring it in the morning
I'd ring it in the evening
All over this land I'd ring out danger 
I'd ring out a warning
I'd ring out love between all of my brothers 
All over this land 

If I had a song 
I'd sing it in the morning
I'd sing it in the evening 
All over this land 
I'd sing out danger
I'd sing out a warning 
I'd sing out love between all of my brothers 
All over this land

Well I've got a hammer 
And I've got a bell
And I've got a song to sing 
All over this land 
It's the hammer of justice
It's the bell of freedom
It's the song about love between all of my brothers 
All over this land
