Peace - Kim Boyce

We’ve searched for it like pilgrims

Through faithless days

We’ve hoped for it to come like rain

And fill our empty souls

We’ve waited for it like a miracle

To turn our world around

But until we look beyond ourselves

It will not be found

Peace, on this side of heaven

Peace, where none is given

In a world that’s so demanding

We all need some understanding

Peace, when the road’s uncertain

Peace, when the soul is hurting

We ache for it and we pray for it

But only on our knees will we find peace

We long for it through busy days

And sleepless nights

We’ve wished for it to stem the tide

Of chaos in our lives

We’ve dreamed of someday reaching it

A lost and distant home

But until we put our Savior first

We will never, ever know

Peace, on this side of heaven

Peace, where none is given

In a world that’s so demanding

We all need some understanding

Peace, when the road’s uncertain

Peace, when our soul is hurting

We ache for it and we pray for it

But only on our knees will we find peace

Lord, calm the waters upon our troubled seas

'Cause only by Your power will we ever receive

Peace, on this side of heaven

Peace, where none is given

In a world that’s so demanding

We all need some understanding

Peace, when the road’s uncertain

Peace, when our soul is hurting

We ache for it and we pray for it

But only on our knees

We ache for it and we pray for it

But only on our knees will we find peace
