Secret to Peace

Isaiah 26:3

God will always keep you in perfect peace,
As long as He remains as your centerpiece;
For putting your trust in the Lord forever,
Throughout the day in all that you endeavor;
The secret to peace isn't under your pillow,
Maybe it's hid underneath a weeping willow;
Actually, you could find it nearly anywhere,
Could be you'll find it floating in the air;
You may possibly find it riding on a train,
It may be the next time you fly in a plane;
Maybe some, a beautiful sculptured statue,
Of Jesus carrying a lamb holds that value;
It's a reminder no matter when we are lost,
He'll be searching until found at any cost;
What a peaceful sense of calm and security,
From a shepherd with kindness and purity;
Jesus is the secret of real peace of mind,
Spiritual radiance that won't be out-shined;
Trusting in Him through each and every day,
Causes tension and anxiety to slip away.
