They always say to wait
“One day your peace will come”
It makes us hesitate
To change what’s bothersome
About our days
About our life
About our ways
And so the strife
Keeps pouring in
And piles high
As we begin
To beg the sky
“Come and fix me
I’m right here!
Help me to live
Beyond my fear
Why won’t you show?
This isn’t fair!”
Our spirits low,
Peace isn’t there.
The good news is they’re wrong
It’s not a waiting game
If we cast our glances long
We’ll end up just the same
But if we look inside
We’ll see peace isn’t far
It’s ours if we’ll abide,
Accepting who and where we are.
Peace be with you!
