1
John Roth had a heart like flame
2
He believed all souls were loved the same
3
He packed up his hopes
4
And his family and moved to Ohio
5
There in the deep, dark wilderness
6
With a newborn son he soon was blessed
7
Raised him up in the ways of the old prophets
8
Named him Isaiah Roth
9
Do no harm, shed no blood
10
The only law here is love
11
We can call the kingdom down
12
Here on earth
13
Beat your swords into plows
14
Don't be afraid, I'll show you how
15
Lift your eyes to the skies
16
All is holy here
17
The forest people soon came near
18
His message to the red children clear
19
We can build the peaceable kingdom here
20
In shadow of these trees
21
They planted oats and beans and maize
22
They planted their hearts in the dirt of that place
23
And they learned to speak of hope and grace
24
In the language of John Roth
25
Do no harm, shed no blood
26
The only law here is love
27
We can call the kingdom down
28
Here on earth
29
Beat your swords into plows
30
Don't be afraid, I'll show how
31
Lift your eyes to the skies
32
All is holy here
33
When Isaiah Roth had just turned ten
34
He was workin' up in the loft again
35
He looked out and he saw eight white men
36
Come ridin' up that day
37
The men called out from the deepening glade
38
Saying, "Ya'll come on out and we can trade"
39
The forest people walked out unafraid
40
With smiles and open hands
41
The white traders lifted up their guns
42
And shot them down, each and every one
43
And the Eden that John Roth begun
44
Lay bleeding on the ground
45
Do no harm, shed no blood
46
The only law here is love
47
We can call the kingdom
48
Down here on earth
49
Beat your swords into plows
50
Don't be afraid, I'll show how
51
Lift your eyes to the skies
52
All is holy here
53
Now the world has aged by 50 years
54
The Quakers came and settled near
55
Old Isaiah Roth still preaches here
56
That the greatest law is love
57
Now some people say it's all a scam
58
Just the ravings of some old man
59
But Isaiah Roth says he still can
60
See Eden on the hill
61
Do no harm, shed no blood
62
The only law here is love
