Peace River

When my life
Is filled with grief
When I question
my belief

Peace River 
come to me
Flow from heaven 
set me free

From on high
to dark valley 
Crystal pure
a gift from Thee

Give me rest
from my toil
Nourish flowers
Feed parched soil

Peace River
sooth my eyes
A remedy
for earthly lies

Living water
brings me rest
A gift from God
that’s truly blessed.

Look into my eyes
There you will see
That river flows
inside of me.

Your abidance in God is greatly appreciated. Stay blessed dear Richard. Login to Reply Richard Lamoureux Date: 12/14/2023 11:09:00 AM Thanks once again for your thoughtful visit and comment,
