I Have No Peace In This Life

I have no peace in this life
25 Nov 2018 11:59 AM

I have no peace in this life
In this world there is only strife

Vulgarity and **** they are the norm
Love is cast out and into sin we are born

In this world we do have trouble
We do not live in a magic spiritual bubble

The only true peace is that which Christ gives
That where He is there we may also live

It is so hard to hold on and fight on and carry on
When every thing is greased thick like scum on a stagnet pond

Christ is the light and our only hope
For we all hang ourselves with our own rope

We are selfish and self centered 
We are divided and splintered

Each day just gets harder and harder
But the love of God continues to grow stronger and stronger

Yes it is tough and it is sad
But I will still hold on with all that I have

I will run this race and fight this fight
All through the day and all through the night

My one and only goal you see
Is to be with Christ and to help others to see
