Songs about Peace (2/1-2/15)

2 Cor. 13:11bc "Live in peace; and the God of love and peace shall be with you."

Collection of Songs on Peace and Love.
I've got peace like a river, peace like a river,
I've got peace like a river in my soul.
I've got peace like a river, peace like a river,
I've got peace like a river in my soul.
(Author unknown)
I've got love like an ocean, love like an ocean,
I’ve got love like an ocean in my soul.
I’ve got love like an ocean, love like an ocean,
I’ve got love like an ocean in my soul.

(ASL) Peace, peace, wonderful peace,
Flowing down from the mountain of God.
Come over my spirit forever I pray,
His love, very deep and like oceans of love.

Peace! Peace! Wonderful peace,
Coming down from the Father above;
Sweep over my spirit forever I pray,
In fathomless billows of love.
(W.D.Cornell; W.G.Cooper)

Peace give I to thee,
Peace give I to thee,
Not as the world gives,
Give I to thee,
Peace give I to thee.....
(Vic House, Praise Chorus Book)

Inspiration: Someone asked, “How can I sing about having love like an ocean in my soul when I don’t feel any love in my heart?” Hebrews 11:1 tells us to have faith in something even if we do not see it. I put my faith in action when I sing about peace and love in my soul. I would ask Holy Spirit to fill me with His peace and love when I sing.

Faith is looking beyond even when you do not see it now. It might be helpful to sing about peace when you worried. Like a song says, “Why worry when you can pray (or sing)? God’s Word tells us to speak the word and it shall be done according to your faith.

Let’s believe His Word and trust God today!
