The sacred heart of Jesus
The silence of a church
Flickering of a sanctuary lamp
Encourages the search
A peaceful heart we’re looking for
A place to be at rest
Labour and overburdened
We seek our own dear nest
Yet every day we travel
From early morn till dusk
All our calm unravels
Who are we to trust?
The Lord gives invitation
Come to me and see
My yoke is easy my burden light
Time to trust in me
The Lord who went through torment
Who stood before his foes
Who bore our weight of sin and shame
Who suffered all the blows
He is the saviour of mankind
The one who calls to me
Be gentle humble in all you do
You’ll get there just you see

+ As life means relationships, peace is to be found in our relationships, and foundationally, in our relationship to self and fundamentally, in our relationship to the Lord. Where honesty, kindness and love are practised there is our peace.
