Peace

Don't cry, my child.

Peace be still and know that I am LORD.

I have called you from your sinful life.

From all your pain and trials and strife.

And, child, I want you to know.

 

(chorus)

That I love you,

That I know you,

That I was there before you were born.

I love you!

Peace, be still and know that I am LORD.

 

What compels you to cry when you're hurting,

What makes you scream when you're all alone?

Why do you fight so hard to be broken,

When you know you never have to be alone?

 

(chorus)

 

That I will lift you

Into my arms.

I will keep you

Safe from harm.

I love you more than you could know.

Be still and know that I am LORD.

 

I was there when you took your first step.

I was there when you took your first breath.

I LOVE YOU!

PEACE, be still and know that I am LORD.
