Peace, Joy And Praise

 

The night whispers to me of peace,
The stillness of a soul
That rests, despite this world’s chaos,
Because it’s been made whole.
 
Night sings a song of silent joy
That only those can hear
Who have first heard the Shepherd’s voice
Calling them soft, but clear.
 
There was no peace in the long nights
Before I called His name,
But now His loving peace is mine,
His mercies I can claim.
 
I am not worthy of such love,
Nor could I ever be,
But He took all my fears away 
And shares His peace with me.
 
Now I can hear the night whisper
Its songs of loving praise
For they are the songs of my heart
And will be all my days.
 
Isaiah 32:17
And the effect of righteousness will be peace, and the result of righteousness, quietness and trust forever.
