Creative plans may build the rejected hearts
Support and motivation may prevail
In the ways of peace
In the Name of the Lord

Peace is an action

In the nurturing ways of peace
In the name of the Lord

Peace is an action
That seeks God’s presence

In the light of peace
In the name of the Lord

Peace is an action
That waits in God’s will

In the ways of peace
In the name of the Lord

Peace is an action

In the ways of peace
In the Name of the Lord

Peace is an action

Gratitude and goodness may prevail
In the ways of peace
In the Name of the Lord

Peace is an action
That advocates for justice
Praying and praising may uplift the downtrodden soul
Intercession and fellowship may prevail
In the ways of peace
In the Name of the Lord

Peace is an action
That promotes justice
Life in the ways of human respect and freedom may deliver the shackles of oppressed
Freedom and joy may prevail
In the ways of peace
In the Name of the Lord

Peace is an action
That lives in faith
Peace is an action

Peace is an action
That reflects the joy
Of the heart of the Lord
