This song was recorded October 1991. As far as i can tell it is about the Gulf War. Points of light refers to George Bush Sr.'s republican nomination acceptance speech where he used the analogy of his idea of america:
This is America: the Knights of Columbus, the Grange, Hadassah, the Disabled American Veterans, the Order of Ahepa, the Business and Professional Women of America, the union hall, the Bible study group, LULAC, "Holy Name" - a brilliant diversity spread like stars, like a thousand points of light in a broad and peaceful sky.
As for the New world order line, it comes from a speech from Mr. Bush before congress, about his post-soviet objectives:
"Out of these troubled times, our fifth objective — a New World Order — can emerge: a new era"
add troops on the border, and you have the first gulf war
