There is Only One Source of Peace- Often

There is only one source of peace, often
In the most difficult times of our lives
Through the Savior heavy burdens soften
Unto rest to continue to strive

Shall we let a circumstance
Spiritually disable us?
No ...let us mark our existence
Through Christ, with His light and solace

Think of the many generations
Waiting to follow your lead
Then, renew your dedication
To strengthen yourself and your seed

Along the way, may your poor soul
Find joy as exceeding as is your pain
Even, that you may feel healthy and whole
As you find the Lord you have more gained

He, our bright and morning star
Will deliver us out of any bondage
"Hold on thy way", He is never far
Come what elements combine to hedge


Turn to the Lord
Who is mighty to save
Find strength to move forward
On a path He has paved


Turn to the Lord
