The most expensive things I own, the ones I cherish most.
Are simple things like peace with God and His indwelling Holy Ghost.
Peace with God is offered freely by His sacrificial life.
Peace with God will carry me to where He is and end my pain and strife.
The Peace Of God is different as it ultimately depends on me
How circumspect my walk with Him, how strongly I believe
I love the feel of bless-ed peace when close to Him I walk
Then I bargain that tranquility when old temptations start
I know that He’s forgiven those sins my wicked heart desires
My eyes, my flesh, still offers up this peace to sinful fires
Lord, take me back to that love I had at the very start
Teach me to hold dearer this peace, this very special part
Resting in not only peace afforded by Your dying on that Cross
But in that peace, I only know when I hold You to my heart.

Col. 3:15 And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.” “And let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in one body. And be thankful.” “Now may the Lord of peace himself give you peace at all times in every way.
