Peace Like a River



Peace like a river
Have you ever experienced peace, even in the midst of Violence?

Have you ever experienced peace like a river
Where there's no fear or shiver

Tranquility peace and harmony
Even the river moves around odds like rocks, and even can not be stopped, peace in the midst of war, which is transcendent.

The peace flows continually despite the odds,
There is peace at silence

Where tranquility rules the hour
Where despair is gone

Where fears are gone
Where war is absent

Hereby making way for free movements.
Have you ever experienced this peace

And can we?
Never in our own strength can we experience peace,

Because the world we live in is not at peace
but with the almighty, we can still experience peace

And also a season of stupendous calmness to stupor
Making way for peace in abundance

A world with no existence of savage
Where peace rules and ravage
i still hope for peace to win the game
indeed there is peace at silence
