                                                                                                                There is in me a Peace today
A Peace I can't explain,
There is in me a peace today
That helps me bear the pain.
A Peace that comes from God above
Out of the river of life,
A Peace that comes from His great love
At the loss of my daughter and wife.

There is in me a peace today
A Peace within my heart,
There is in me a Peace today
That helps me make a new start.
Amidst all that is so unclear
It helps me see each day through,
It helps me face the coming year
Knowing they are both with You.

There is in me a Peace today
As they are in no more pain,
There is in me a Peace today
As with You they'll rule and reign.
A Peace that brings me comfort
                                                                                                                 And helps me in stormy weather,
                                                                                                                 A Peace that comes in the knowledge
                                                                                                                  One day we'll again be together.

                                                                                                                                        © [ Neil Hodgson. 25/3/93 ]

Beyond Time !

Beyond today, beyond tomorrow
Beyond life's hardships, beyond its sorrows,
There awaits a Joy that shall not cease
There awaits a time of Everlasting Peace.

A Peace beyond what we can understand
Or comprehend of the Promised land,
That Lord You've promised to all who by faith
Attain to Your Calling to so run the race.

The daily race we are each called to run
A mixture of hardship intermingled with fun,
That enables us Lord to press on toward you
No matter what the race may take us through.

No matter the obstacles we have to embrace
Thanks to You Lord who daily by Grace,
Walks with us always each and everyday
As our companion, our friend along our life's way.

We’re to Not Fear Tomorrow !

For many people my Lord, life is simply a gamble
For they in no way know what tomorrow may yet bring,
For every unbeliever lives daily without everlasting hope
Yet we have that Hope in You Jesus Christ our King.

For now Lord Jesus the life that was once to us
Yes to Your children, indeed a gamble too,
Has become as we have so allowed You into our lives
A life of Everlasting Hope and Promise through You.

Now as much of the world is in great turmoil
And they face with uncertainty each and everyday,
Having put all their trust in the ways of fallible man
They are fearful of what life may yet bring their way.

Yet our knowing that You are with us everyday Lord
We can face life’s journey with a great strength and certainty,
As You are our Hope, our Strength and our Shield
Yes You’re our Life without end for all eternity.

Yes You are our Lord and You are our King too
And it is through You that we the redeemed can now enter in,
Into Your Presence with a heart of praise and thanksgiving
Daily our Lord Jesus Christ, Whose Peace is beyond understanding.
