Heavenly Peace
A gentle feeling comes within
A gentle feeling comes within
His light shines
brightly on my soul
A gentle feeling comes
within
Prayer and praise is my whispered goal
Prayer and praise is my whispered goal
Sweet dreams I sleep
safely all night
His light shines brightly
on my soul
To please Him is my earthly flight
His love protects me all
day long
Sweet dreams I sleep
safely all night
Without my Father lost and gone
He builds me up and shows
me way
His love protects me
all day long
Questions of life is not my tray
For His calm brings me
inner peace
He builds me up and
shows me way
Joy comes to soul as all fears cease
A gentle feeling comes
within
For His calm brings me
inner peace
A gentle feeling comes
within
