Psalm of Peace

Psalm of Peace .... I am not the man I was I have been crucified with Christ No longer lost and bound by sin For with His blood He paid my price I see the world much differently now Handle conflict in such a different way I see it clearly in my actions And much more so in the words I say Now when the enemy attacks I know I can stand strong And when I face the world's injustice I know I won't fight wrong with wrong Today I can let belligerence slide No longer provoked by ignorance Now I have truly learned to turn the other cheek Why did it take me so long to be convinced I can let an affront roll off my shoulders When others would be ready to fight Many would think me to be a fool But I have just stepped into the light Days wasted in anger are now long gone No longer wrapped up in foolish pride I've found what many will never understand I have found peace with the Lord as my guide Your brother in Christ, Rev.
