 One Man on a Musical Mission for World Peace ! GOD BLESS THE WORLD While You Bless America was written, arranged and produced by GREG JONES of Cleveland, Ohio. "This special peace song was inspired from watching the news everyday, seeing all of the deaths and destruction that occur in war and I just knew there had to be a better way. Peace is the answer-the solution, is how I, and I've come to learn, millions of other people, worldwide feel on the issue of war. I just feel that our leaders are intelligent enough to discuss matters as a means of rectification instead of looking at human lives as expendable" states Greg when asked of his motivation for this powerful project. ) " I would turn on the news each day and..."
With over 200 unreleased songs under his belt, songwriter Greg Jones shares his inspiration for this special recording. 'While watching the news each day I would see how so many world leaders resort to war as a means of settling conflict, as if human life is expendable. It would make me sick. They always say that if you want to see a change you have to do something, whatever you can, even when you're just one person. I've always been inspired by greats like John Lennon, Bob Dylan, Marvin Gaye and Bill Withers, so I did what I could do. I wrote a song. 
Jones selected one of the hottest new studios in Cleveland, Ohio, Ante Up Audio to record this special peace song. The anthem was co-produced and engineered by old friend Bruce Seifert, who has recorded with Jones in the past, and the music tracks were performed by Michael Seifert (his son) who further enhanced Jones' music. Both Bruce and Michael are highly acclaimed Award Winners in the music industry and have worked on various Grammy Award winning projects. 'We go back over 20 years. Michael used to run around Bruce's studio touching all the knobs on the board when he was like five years old. It was just great working with them again', states Jones.

Background vocals were uniquely performed by classical music impressario and professor of music at Cleveland State University William Dempsey, Dontraven Reed, who has an extensive background in music and has performed in groups such as national recording artists Klockwork as well as performed in Las Vegas with The Platters and Gere', who is highly recognized as one of America's best female vocalists with a professional background ranging from solo projects all the way to singing tracks for rap recording artists such as Grammy award winners Bone, Thugs and Harmony.
