Take His Peace
©1976 by William J. Gaither and Gloria Gaither.
When the whirlwinds of doubt, churn their way into your soul, Take His peace.
When your world’s reduced to ashes, leaving nothing pure and whole, Take His peace.
There amidst the broken wreckage in the midnight of your day,
In the apex of the storm cloud, He’s the quiet place to stay. Take His peace.
When you’re worried and you’re fearful for the children you hold dear,
Let a loving Heavenly Father share each joy and dry each tear, Take His peace.
God has promised if we lead them and we guide them from the start,
Then the seed of truth and peace shall find rich soil in their heart. Take His peace.
When your mind gropes for answers to the questions that you face;
When your past comes back to haunt you and you need amazing grace,
Aww, there’s an answer beyond question…it’s the truth for which you yearn,
There’s forgiveness without merit, there’s a love you needn’t earn, Take His peace.
When you’re weary of the struggle and you need a place to rest,
When you lose more than you’re winning, and you’re failing every test, Take His peace.
There’s no need to fight a battle that’s been fought and won before,
You can lay back in the victory, freely share His boundless store,
Take His peace. Take His peace!
