Fill my soul with Peace

I heard this peaceful song this week: Fill My Soul With Peace by Rob Gardner (from Saints & Pioneers)

It was what I needed to hear to calm my heart and ease the pit in my stomach. It's been a rather intense week for my fam ... hoping that my sis Amy was going to be healthy. She seems to be on the up-and-up, slowly but surely. She's an inspiration of optimism and strength!

I don't have the energy to figure out putting the Itunes file on my bloggie but you can listen to a snippet here.
Fill My Soul With Peace

Lord, wilt thou fill my soul with peace,
That pain and sorrow there might cease?
Let songs of praise and of glory fill my ear,
And may thy holy spirit linger here.

Lord wilt thou fill my heart with love,
That I may see thy realm above?
Oh let my soul ever there commune with thee,
That I may know what thou wouldst have me be.

Lord, wilt thou purge my soul of doubt?
That with thine angels I may shout
Hosannas to thy holy name,
And with the saints of old my mansion claim!

Lord, wilt thou fill my soul with peace?
That I may soon return to live with thee.
(ok - I'm not saying with this song here that I want to "soon return to live with thee."... mostly just the part about filling my heart with peace, love, and faith.)
