Blessed Are the Peacemakers

Blessed are the peacemakers
A great source of joy in life
They are a great blessing
Amidst life’s battles and strife.

We have one such amongst us
Who is quite capable
To diffuse any situation
To bring peace he’s able.

He knows how to calm the rage
When anger is raging high
He brings peace and calm
When the sparks seem to fly.

His mind is all at peace
When others see red
He restores normalcy
When sanity hangs by a thread.

He devotes his life to prayer
We hold him in great admiration
The world he makes a better place
He is truly an inspiration.

Dedicated to Bro. Stanley Cherian, our friendly and esteemed neighbour
