Shirley Caesar - The Peace Of God lyrics

Sometimes a deep settled peace comes upon me Even when in sorrow and despair When it comes it soothes my soul completely And it makes me know my God is near The peace of god, the peace of god It will keep your hearts and minds through Jesus Christ Jesus said let not your heart be troubled Neither let it be afraid For my peace I will give onto you Not as the world giveth will I give onto you Fret not yourself because of evildoers And choose none of their ways But when they use you and spitefully abuse you Just reach out and call on the Lord And the peace of god, the peace of god, yes it will It will keep your hearts and minds through Jesus Christ He will keep hearts and minds in perfect peace, yes he will The peace of god, the peace of god, yes it will Will keep your hearts and minds through Jesus Christ The peace of god, the peace of god, yes it will Will keep your hearts and minds through Jesus Christ Peace We're living in such a mean world A world where there's no rest A world where there's a lot of turmoil, strife, hatred, bigotry A lot of sickness Where young people are strung out on d** There's murder, there's hate, there's debate, there's deceit We're living in a mean world with the threat of nuclear war hanging over our heads But Jesus has plainly told us in his word, let not be your heart be troubled Don't let it be afraid for my peace I'm gonna give onto you Not as the world giveth will I give onto you He'll give you peace when cannot find your way He'll give you peace in the midnight hour A deep settled peace within, yes he will He'll wipe the tears from your eyes, yes he will The peace of God, the peace of God It will walk in you, talk in you and live in you, yes it will Oh yeah, the peace of God it will abide in you
