Peace, Perfect Peace

orchidee



Tune: Divine Mysteries

('Sweet Sacrament Divine')

******

Peace here for a Sunday

Peace here for a Monday

Peace any day of week

'Tis God's peace that we seek

The best peace is His peace, bar none

We access it through Christ His Son

Transcends all earthly forms

Of peace, 'tis His shalom

 

Seek His peace, find His peace

'Twill in your life release

Receive His peace, it will

Lift troubled souls from ill

And troubled spirits it shall calm

Protect from trouble, fear, and harm

Blessing from Him it be

Perfect peace constantly

 

It shall to your depths reach

Security to each

Healing, unlocks within

Peace with God, freed from sin

Through Jesus' blood shed on the tree

Forgiveness there for you and me

Find peace true, eternal

Through Christ, now hear His call

 

God who ne'er strives, ne'er fazed

He worthy to be praised

He Creator and King

We Him our worship bring

And He is Ruler over all

Our times in His hand, we not fall

His hand is strong and sure

All-powerful e'ermore

  • Comment from author about the poem: A hymn-poem in 6666 8866 metre, a bit 'high' or may mostly be found in Anglo-Catholic churches. You may have seen and heard this clip before. I have not listed my poems by date, but I number them. This is an adaptation of a 'said' poem from over 1,000 poems ago! Maybe 1,000 years too? heehee.

      Great work. Over 1000 years ago eh? Did you ever meet the poet? Are you the poet? So many questions.

      • orchidee

        Yep I met that Cally-wotsit muse - Calliope!

        • Michael Edwards

          Thanks STEVE for lifting our Hearts this morning with a beautiful HYMN ~ sung by a HER this morning ! Thanks also for your elegant Poem which speaks to us about Gods Peace & Gods Presence. My Hymn this morning is in a similar vein. My Prayer is that some of "The troubled Souls" on MPS will read our Poems & listen to our and find "The Peace that passeth understanding" That can only come from a living relationship with GOD ! Thanks for caring & sharing ! Andy has also posted an excellent piece on Chet Baker and his JAZZ TRUMPET ~ awesome ! Your Brother in the Lord ~ BRIAN
