I find peace
Jul 28, 2007
I penned this a while ago and thought that I should share it with you. I may turn it into a song someday. :)
I Find Peace
I had perfect peace when my spirit was with Thee before birth;
Then in my mother’s womb Your hands formed me;
I shed tears at birth when my spirit was separated from Thee;
When I was thrust upon this cruel world and life.
Though away from Your presence, I find peace in Your creation;
I find peace in the rays of the morning sun,
I find peace in the setting of the sun at eventide;
I find peace in the night from Your gentle moon.
I find peace when I smell Your array of flowers;
I find peace in every branch and leave of every tree;
I find peace in the bubbly movement of the squirrel;
I find peace when each bird sings her song You gave.
I find peace in the gentle dew that rests on the land,
I find peace in the refreshing rain that falls from above,
I find peace in the air that You so freely give,
I find peace in waterfalls, rivers, fountains and springs.
I find peace in all Your creation my lovely Lord,
These You have given me for the short while I am here,
They provide me some form of peace oh God
Till I return to You and perfect peace is again, mine.
