This song is a reflection of one aspect of God's character...'He is my peace, who has broken down every wall.' He is Jehovah Shalom.
I write and perform a variety of music, but I especially love to write praise and worship songs...something that has eternal value!
Story behind the song
This came out of a time of turmoil in my life when I was dead-set on "beating my way" into the path I felt that God had put me here for...songwriting. I realized that instead of striving I needed to rest and trust His hand.
Lyrics
You are my peace when the storms rage around me
You are my peace in the midst of my fear
You are my peace when the darkness surrounds me
Jehovah-Shalom I know you are near
Shalom, Shalom, Jehovah Shalom
You are my peace Jehovah Shalom
Shalom, Shalom, Jehovah Shalom
You are my peace, Jehovah Shalom
You are my peace, Jehovah Shalom
God of my peace come and pour out upon me
Father of peace I need You so much
Speak to my heart, come and quiet my spirit
Jehovah Shalom I long for Your touch
