My soul has days that worry looms
Inside my mind I’m filled with gloom
It seems I can’t find rest from fear
Then suddenly your peace appears
Peace sweet peace
Overwhelms me like a flood
Peace sweet peace
Was provided by your blood
The storms of life are gathered ‘round
My feet seem stuck in sinking ground
I pray to God my path to clear
He hears my cry and peace appears
Peace sweet peace
Overwhelms me like a flood
Peace sweet peace
Was provided by your blood
The wind will howl and shake the trees
The waves will roll incessantly
Then Jesus comes and calms the seas
He leaves me with His gentle peace
Peace sweet peace
Overwhelms me like a flood
Peace sweet peace
Was provided by your blood
He said my peace I leave with you
Let not your heart be troubling you
Don’t be afraid my peace is more
Than this world ever can afford
Peace sweet peace
Overwhelms me like a flood
Peace sweet peace
Was provided by your blood

That would be wonderful! 🙂 (I’ll have to wait until I have a better Internet connection to listen though.)
