True Peace Poem by Michael P. Johnson

Whether we live whether we die
Without God’s Son we wonder why
But they who have, can sleep at night
We know the Lord has all in sight

Our God gives peace the world can’t give
True joy to those in Christ who’ll live
Though troubles in the world are found
God’s promise is for higher ground

The world may wear her mocking smile
May taunt God’s children for a while
But through her shame, her slight will cease
When Jesus takes away His peace

God’s Lamb gives life, and longs to bring
Inside each heart a song to sing
Sweet melodies of love so true
A taste of God’s eternal dew

Open your heart let truth within
Allow God’s Spirit purge your sin
Christ Jesus died to save your soul
Now! He longs to make you whole

Though Christ was dead, yet now He lives
Eternal life to man He gives
Soon the Groom will claim His bride
Just open up, the lock’s inside

His Spirit’s here to stake His claim
Purging free of filth and shame
The world can’t see, He’s always there
Our burdens yet He’d love to share

So have no doubt and have no fear
Man’s future now is crystal clear
Walk true sweet bride give every care
Then join your Bridegroom in the air…
