that comes from You alone
that the world can’t give
Your peace is true
and everlasting peace
Such peace is short
in supply
in the broken world
that we now live
We need Your transforming peace
It doesn’t impose
its ways on us
neither does it force on us
like a straight jacket
it’s countercultural
You say
Blessed are the peace makers
for they shall be called
Children of God
We radiate Your likeness
Help us live in peace
with all men and women
the young and the old
coloured black and white
regardless of class or station
Where there is no peace
may I be the first
to bring peace
establish it
and cherish it at all times
We pray for Your
Shalom peace
within us
with one another
whether far or near
May the God of Hope
fill us abundantly
With all joy and peace
that we will overflow the world
with Your peace Amen
