Lord of Peace, in the quiet of Your presence, I find the peace that my soul longs for. Help me to seek and savor these moments of tranquility with You.

Lyrics
In the Quiet of Your Peace
Verse 1
In the stillness of the moment, when the world is fast asleep,
In the whispers of the twilight, Your peace it gently seeps.
Like a river, calm and steady, in the chaos, it remains,
In the quiet of Your presence, where my soul is sustained.
Chorus
Peace, beyond understanding, in Your arms, I find,
A refuge from the storm, a rest for my mind.
In the midst of the turmoil, in the eye of the storm,
In Your peace, I am held, in Your love, I am reborn.
Verse 2
Though the mountains may crumble, and the seas may roar,
In Your peace, I stand unshaken, with You, I soar.
For You are my fortress, my shield, and my guide,
In the quiet of Your peace, here I choose to abide.
Chorus
Peace, beyond understanding, in Your arms, I find,
A refuge from the storm, a rest for my mind.
In the midst of the turmoil, in the eye of the storm,
In Your peace, I am held, in Your love, I am reborn.
Bridge
In the turmoil, in the noise, let Your peace be my choice,
To listen for Your voice, and in Your will, rejoice.
In the silence, let me hear, the whisper of Your love so near,
In the quiet of Your peace, every doubt disappears.
Chorus
Peace, beyond understanding, in Your arms, I find,
A refuge from the storm, a rest for my mind.
In the midst of the turmoil, in the eye of the storm,
In Your peace, I am held, in Your love, I am reborn.
Outro
So I’ll rest here in Your peace, as the world goes on,
In the quiet of Your love, where my heart belongs.
Every step I take, let it be in Your peace’s wake,
For in the quiet of Your peace, my spirit awakes.
