PEACE

Troubled mind
Troubled heart
Hurt and anger
Fear and pride
Fruit that linger
If not picked
Fruit that rots
If not dealt with

Peace where is peace
In the shadow of God’s wings
Contentment where is contentment
In the provision of my King

Words they fly
Words they cut
Tongues let loose
Tongues of defense
To tear down
To build up
To take control
To stop cold

Joy where is found joy
In the strength of knowing the Lord
Treasure where is the treasure
In the wisdom and truth of God’s word

Troubled spirit
Troubled home
Eggshells and landmines
Grudges and unforgiveness
Strongholds of heartache
If not dealt with

The peace of the Lord
The contentment of His Spirit
Deep and lasting
For any trial or storm
Come you His children
Sit and learn of His goodness
Come all you His children
Come and be healed
