A PEACE BEYOND UNDERSTANDING

A PEACE BEYOND UNDERSTANDING
LAB
14/2/11

I have a peace that even I don’t understand
Where I stand still when things don’t go as planned
A peace that holds through the many storms of life
A peace that can only be received when you give yourself to Jesus Christ

There are times when I expect tumults to come
But instead a peaceful wind blows away the storm
I now understand why the world can’t give it to me
It’s not something you buy, but through an encounter with Christ, this peace is free

I have been hurt time and time again
And with each hurt I thought that I could bear no more pain
But each time the voice of God is clear, “touch not my anointed, do not come near”

I thank God for His peace
To my weary heart it brings release
There is nothing to compare
No one, nothing, can take the place
Of God’s gift of peace
