Peter, Paul and Mary

Peter, Paul and Mary were a US folk-singing trio whose nearly 50-year career began with their rise to become a paradigm for 1960s folk music. The trio was composed of Peter Yarrow, Paul Stookey and Mary Travers. After the death of Mary Travers in 2009, Yarrow and Stookey continued to perform as a duo under their individual names. more »

Oh the magi were the prophets 
And they wandered through the desert
They saw the star above them 
And they knew they'd find their way
Through the valley of the shadow 
With the hope of human kindness
They were strengthened by the vision 
Of a new and brighter day. 

Chorus:
And the wisemen spoke of peace on earth, 
Of harmony and struggle
Know you now a cycle's gone and a new one is revealed.
In the weaving of your fingers
In the whisper of a love that's born again
In the weaving of your fingers
In a promise that we made that never ends. 

Well now each man is a pilgrim, 
Yes, we all must make the journey
And it seems that time is telling us to be all that we can
To help lift up the fallen, we must sow the seeds of goodness
The torch is passed among us now to light the way of man. 

For the heart of man's a palace 
And his dreams are as the sunlight
They burn away the darkness, as they warm the freezing cold
As an eagle flying higher, as a river through the canyon
The diamond star shines down upon, a pathway to the soul 

(Chorus)2x 

In a promise that we made that never ends.
In a promise that we made that never ends.
