Peace, Sweet Peace.    Peace, sweet peace.doc

By Sharon Rutherford  07-21-1992

Peace is something my heart longs for,
But it’s not found behind just every door.
You can’t find it just anywhere
It’s surely something that the world can’t share. 

When Jesus knew He had to go,
He told his disciples that it would be so.
He promised He’d leave His peace behind,
Not as the world gives, but a perfect kind. 

It keeps making me crazy, breaking my heart,
Tearing my life and my world apart,
Making me crazy, breaking my heart,
Tearing my life and my world apart.

 

If in Him, He has promised me peace,
And so much of the time I feel a sweet release.
Then the prince of this world whispers in my ear,
Then my heart can be filled with such pain and fear. 

With somethin’ so precious, how can I believe
A voice that would only seek to deceive?
A pearl of great price, bought with the Blood,
Received by faith in a mighty God? 

So I don’t have to be crazy. My heart can be whole.
With peace in my spirit and within my soul,
‘Cause You’re making me Holy, I’m trusting Your Word,
May the God of hope fill you with peace,
His peace, sweet, sweet peace.
