Peace And Joy

 



Peace and joy, I have come here to bring you,

Your life to Me is of worth and value,

Did I not see you in your sinful state?

When you, with Me, could not even relate?

I saw you when you in sin were sinking,

Yes, when you of Me weren’t even thinking,

I gave My life to save you from sin’s curse,

That you will grow better, surely not worse,

I’ve done it all, I‘ve given you release,

Why aren’t you living in My joy and peace?

 

I looked, the whole world was dark and dismal,

When I to earth made My first arrival,

The angel announced, peace upon the earth,

Yes, goodwill and joy, arrived with My birth,

Yet darkness of sin and self still did loom,

As there were hearts that for Me had no room,

Hearts just like Herod and those of his kind,

Who seek to kill Me, if they can Me find,

Do not hear My Word, then kill it in you,

Worry kills, it makes My Words in you untrue.  

 

Light has come but many prefer darkness,

Why be one living in such obscureness?

I am the Light, in Me there’s peace and joy,

But you persist, anxiety to employ,

For when things come to cause you anxiousness,

You say you pray, but where’s My peace and calmness,

Worry has its fruit and I have Mine too,

Whose fruit is lusciously growing in you?

Anxieties flee, under My cover,

As peace and joy warm trusting hearts, all over.

Amen!
