Rejoice in the Lord!

Philippians 4:7

And the peace of God, which passeth all
understanding, shall keep your hearts and
minds through Christ Jesus.

 

[JoynTx]

Far away in the depths of my spirit tonight
Rolls a melody sweeter than psalm;
In celestial strains it unceasingly falls
O’er my soul like an infinite calm.


Peace, peace, wonderful peace,
Coming down from the Father above!
Sweep over my spirit forever, I pray
In fathomless billows of love!


What a treasure I have in this wonderful peace,
Buried deep in the heart of my soul,
So secure that no power can mine it away,
While the years of eternity roll!


Peace, peace, wonderful peace,
Coming down from the Father above!
Sweep over my spirit forever, I pray
In fathomless billows of love!


I am resting tonight in this wonderful peace,
Resting sweetly in Jesus’ control;
For I’m kept from all danger by night and by day,
And His glory is flooding my soul!


Peace, peace, wonderful peace,
Coming down from the Father above!
Sweep over my spirit forever, I pray
In fathomless billows of love!


And I think when I rise to that city of peace,
Where the Anchor of peace I shall see,
That one strain of the song which the ransomed will sing
In that heavenly kingdom will be:


Peace, peace, wonderful peace,
Coming down from the Father above!
Sweep over my spirit forever, I pray
In fathomless billows of love!


Ah, soul! are you here without comfort and rest,
Marching down the rough pathway of time?
Make Jesus your Friend ere the shadows grow dark;
O accept of this peace so sublime!

THE ONLY REAL PEACE


Recorded by The Hemphills Copyright @ 1984 Heartwarming Records

1. Life is a few days of trouble a wise man once said,
But I'll not complain, I'm sheltered, I'm clothed, and I'm fed.
But many's the trial my wants and my dreams put me through,
And the only real peace that I have, dear Lord, is in You.


CHORUS: The only real peace that I have, dear Lord, is in You.
The only real peace that I have, dear Lord, is in You.
With all life's frustrations, I need You, and I know I do.
'Cause the only real peace that I have, dear Lord, is in You.


2. The higher I've soared in my dreams the harder I fall
And sometimes I've wondered if dreams are worth dreaming at all.
But my disppointments can't keep me blinded and blue
Not when I'm reminded of the sweet peace I have, Lord, in You.

John 14:22-27

Judas saith unto him, not Iscariot, Lord, how is it that
thou wilt manifest thyself unto us, and not unto the world?
Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will
keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will
come unto him, and make our abode with him.
He that loveth me not keepeth not my sayings: and the word
which ye hear is not mine, but the father which sent me.
These things have I spoken unto you, being yet present with
you.
Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the
world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled,
neither let it be afraid.

Revelation 1:5
Grace and peace to you from him who is, and who was, and who is to come, and from the seven spirits before his throne, and from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, the firstborn from the dead, and the ruler of the kings of the earth.

John 20:19-21
19On the evening of that first day of the week, when the disciples were together, with the doors locked for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood among them and said, "Peace be with you!" 20After he said this, he showed them his hands and side. The disciples were overjoyed when they saw the Lord.
21Again Jesus said, "Peace be with you! As the Father has sent me, I am sending you."

Prayer for Peace

Lord, make me an instrument of Thy peace;
where there is hatred, let me sow love;
where there is injury, pardon;
where there is doubt, faith;
where there is despair, hope;
where there is darkness, light;
and where there is sadness, joy.
O Divine Master,
grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled as to console;
to be understood, as to understand;
to be loved, as to love;
for it is in giving that we receive,
it is in pardoning that we are pardoned,
and it is in dying that we are born to eternal life. Amen.

--St. Francis of Assisi (1181-1226)
