Bring Me Your Peace

The day comes in, the day goes out
 And I have nothing more to show for it than worries, fear and doubt
 The earth spins round and round and round about itself
 And I'm just spinning round myself here like some crazy carousel
 And there is no reason for this discontentment
 I have no load as great as others bear
 And I know there have been times I've felt a quiet in my mind
 And times when I have truly felt you near
 Could it be, despite my doubts, you still are here?
 Bring me your peace, O Lord
 Peace that passes all understanding
 I'm tired of the pace, the impossible race
 It's clouded my mind and it's challenged my faith
 Bring me your peace, O Lord
 Peace that passes all understanding
 I see a world of pain and fear
 Faces bitter and unsatisfied, despite the gold veneer
 And on the evening news I see their eyes
 In headline stories of great tragedies, and broken shattered lives
 And towering o'er the ashes are those few
 Who won't be beaten down by earthly woes
 If they can feel serenity amidst their darkest hours
 Perhaps the power lies within me, too
 If I could look inside and there find you
 Bring me your peace, O Lord
 Peace that passes all understanding
 I'm tired of the pace, the impossible race
 It's clouded my mind and it's challenged my faith
 Bring me your peace, O Lord
 Peace
 Peace that passes all understanding
 And I will look to you
 And breathe in your love
