Your Peace Washes Through

 

In perfect peace the sabbath ends
With stillness in my soul.
Tomorrow I will rise and stand,
Renewed and, once more, whole.
 
It doesn’t matter where I am
Or what I’ll walk into,
As much as it matters to me
That I’ll walk in with You.
 
You are my rock when life is hard,
The strength I need to rise,
But in Your perfect peace I rest
Beneath Your watchful eyes.
 
There is no stillness in my soul
Unless You’ve put it there.
For this world is filled with turmoil,
With anger and despair.
 
Yet, on Your everlasting rock,
Beside Your still waters,
I know I’ll find that perfect peace
That no trouble deters.
 
One week has passed, and one comes on,
But I will rest in You,
Between that end and the new start,
Where Your peace washes through.
 
Isaiah 26:3-4
You keep him in perfect peace whose mind is stayed on you, because he trusts in you.
Trust in the Lord forever, for the Lord God is an everlasting rock.
