Where’s
the peace that civilization longs for?
Why
must wars persist?
Fighting
for hearts and minds...
Needing
to control the mass of peoples and natural resources
Peace
on earth remains a promise, as men fight and kill for supremacy...
And
the right to rule and control
The
spirit of love, under intense fire...
As
communities burn in hate and isolation
The
peace that was meant to be...
Is
still prayed for and held in the highest esteem
There
is a path away from the violence of man-
One
that is searched for and wanted daily...
One
that's forever a pillar of unrelenting faith, hope and love
Peace
from heaven is lasting,
And
good souls from the earth believe
The
spirit of eternal joy has given his word,
Peace
through salvation is the only way...
Within
hearts believing in better days
The
world will survive through the peace of the creator...
No
man shall have his way forever,
No
matter how much he kills and terrorizes
The
kingdom of unity will prevail...
Like
no other experienced before
The
master of love for all;
The
savior of the world
The
one who will end all conflicts,
And
set up a throne of authority that is written...
Where
songs of appreciation and adoration will be sung without interruption, forever!
The
peace that was meant to be will come without notice...
Those
who believe are ready to embrace it,
The
haters, warmongers, and all other enemies of love and harmony-
Will
be consumed by the peacemaker's joyous trumpet
The
peace that awaits the faithful...
Indeed,
is the most lasting and blessed,
It’s
the gift of eternal life and the faithful promise.
