Inner Peace

Some of my favorite lines from a few older songs talk about the inner peace that can only be found through a relationship with Jesus:

Peace, perfect peace,
With sorrows surging round,
On Jesus' bosom naught
but calm is found.

Be still, my soul;
The Lord is on thy side.
Bear patiently the cross of grief or pain;
Leave to thy God to order and provide;
In every change he faithful will remain.
Be still, my soul; thy best, thy heavenly Friend
Through thorny ways leads to a joyful end.

Ye fearful saints,
Fresh courage take,
The clouds ye so much dread
Are big will mercy,
And shall break
In blessings on your head.

O Joy that seekest me through pain,
I can not close my heart to thee;
I trace the rainbow through the rain,
And feel the promise is not vain,
That morn shall tearless be.
