There Will Be Peace
This world is filled with lies, deceit, and corruption
There are too many images of violence and destruction
As panic fills the beleaguered atmosphere
Everyone can sense fear
Right now I'm thinking of sorrow
I believe there's still hope for tomorrow
Through the silence the lies could be heard
I listened to them but didn’t hear a word
World Peace is a percolation problem
The problems of this world only God can solve them
I have one scream to echo
It’s a never-ending cry for help from my soul
It's time to bring people together, so we can bring about peace
In the name of Jesus we can get this done, so never let it cease
Peace is created with hand in hand together each and every race
Then we all will live in peace making the world be a better place
Psalm 34:14 Turn away from evil and do good; seek peace and pursue it.
Matthew 6:34 “Therefore do not be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble."
James 4:1-2 What causes quarrels and what causes fights among you? Is it not this, that your passions are at war within you? You desire and do not have, so you murder. You covet and cannot obtain, so you fight and quarrel. You do not have, because you do not ask.
