Peace

Peace

(version of the 23rd Psalm)
Published: November 2014

As I wander through the green, green, grassy glades
With valleys swathed in darkness.
In deep dark tunnels of despair,
all my burdens laid on my shoulders.
I know that I am His sheep and He is my shepherd.

With every footstep I take He guides my way.
When I stumble, He lifts me up
And leads me through valleys far and wide.
Streams flow and meander with life-giving water,
A place where I can sit and stay.

With Him I am at peace.
He knows my every thought,
Even the secrets of my heavy heart.
His blessings fill my every day.
With His spirit I know I am safe.

I foresee the light of heaven.
All around the crafted colours of Creation.
His arms outstretched to comfort me.
His caring, calming voice
Leads me to a place of peace
