| Sometimes a deep settled peace comes upon me
|
| Even when in sorrow and despair
|
| When it comes it soothes my soul completely
|
| And it makes me know my God is near
|
| The peace of god, the peace of god
|
| It will keep your hearts and minds through Jesus Christ
|
| Jesus said let not your heart be troubled
|
| Neither let it be afraid
|
| For my peace I will give onto you
|
| Not as the world giveth will I give onto you
|
| Fret not yourself because of evildoers
|
| And choose none of their ways
|
| But when they use you and spitefully abuse you
|
| Just reach out and call on the Lord
|
| And the peace of god, the peace of god, yes it will
|
| It will keep your hearts and minds through Jesus Christ
|
| He will keep hearts and minds in perfect peace, yes he will
|
| The peace of god, the peace of god, yes it will
|
| Will keep your hearts and minds through Jesus Christ
|
| The peace of god, the peace of god, yes it will
|
| Will keep your hearts and minds through Jesus Christ
|
| Peace
|
| We’re living in such a mean world
|
| A world where there’s no rest
|
| A world where there’s a lot of turmoil, strife, hatred, bigotry
|
| A lot of sickness
|
| Where young people are strung out on drugs
|
| There’s murder, there’s hate, there’s debate, there’s deceit
|
| We’re living in a mean world with the threat of nuclear war hanging over our
|
| heads
|
| But Jesus has plainly told us in his word, let not be your heart be troubled
|
| Don’t let it be afraid for my peace I’m gonna give onto you
|
| Not as the world giveth will I give onto you
|
| He’ll give you peace when cannot find your way
|
| He’ll give you peace in the midnight hour
|
| A deep settled peace within, yes he will
|
| He’ll wipe the tears from your eyes, yes he will
|
| The peace of God, the peace of God
|
| It will walk in you, talk in you and live in you, yes it will
|
| Oh yeah, the peace of God it will abide in you |
