Peace Abounds

upon forgiveness the Lord's face shines
water turned to sweet, sweet wine
drink my friend and let it renew
the gift of love awaits you

grace surrounds, peace abounds
faith will never let you down
in the teachings of His book
all are quickly overlooked

although some pain I can't forget
you do not fill me with regret
yesterday's petals now less fragrant
tomorrow's flower blooms resplendent
