The Beat That Leads My Heart To Peace

Praying for love and world peace

                                 A song of hope to never cease

                               To see life shine in other's hearts

                                 Across a world in foreign parts

                              That there will come a glorious Day

                            When tears of hate are washed away

                             The tyrant's jeers at mother's tears

                                        Gone forever more

                    Golden days of sunshine and finally, no more war
  
                        Though loving hearts would march in peace

                              Thus far the sorrows do not cease

                              There's Hope of peace for everyone

                          That lives and breathes beneath the sun

                                      There is a day a comin'

                             Do you hear this drummer drummin?

                                And all the tears, and all the war

                          Gone with earth's sorrows forever more

                                A flash of Light, a mighty shout

                                The Savior throwing hatred out

                                 Bringing love and world peace

                                  A song of joy to never cease

                               The King of kings, the Mighty One

                                 The Holy Savior, Precious Son

                               Thus is my hope, this is my prayer

                                His trumpet sound will fill the air

                             This rhythmic hope will never cease

                           The beat that leads my heart to peace

Thank you so much Anon, for your visit to my page and for your uplifting comment to this poem. We get so weary with the sorrows of the sadness of this earth. I find hope only in God, who else can we turn to if not Him.
