Lyrics
The road to peace
© 2009 Bruce Mills (ASCAP)
The road to peace is hard and long
We'll never find our way alone
Lead us, oh Lord, please show the way -
Let your love guide each step we take
The time has come - the day is near
The prophet's words - so true and clear:
Be still my soul, and you will know - oh, my soul
Eternal faith and hope and love
The spirit lives - for freedom's power -
For the whole world to live in peace
Be still my soul, and you will know - oh my soul
Eternal faith and hope and love
Help us to reach the Promised Land
Oh, Shepherd Lord, please take my hand -
Let war and pain and dying fade -
The sacrifices have (all) been made
Oh, happy day, is coming soon
And this old world will pass away
And glory will come down from heaven above
Eternal faith and hope and love
Until that day, oh, keep us Lord
Until your healing river flows
Across this land that you have made
Where people live as one - in peace
Let spirits soar - with freedom's power
Let all forgive and sing with joy
Oh, Rock of Ages - ever strong
To you, our hearts - our souls belong
Oh, lead us Lord
(Oh, lead us Lord)
Oh, lead us Lord
(Oh, lead us Lord)
The road to peace, is hard and long
We'll never find our way alone
Lead us, oh Lord, please show the way
Let your love guide each step we take
Oh, happy day, oh happy day!
When this old world will pass away
When glory will come down from heaven above
Eternal faith and hope -
Hope and love -
Love and peace
Amen - Amen - Amen - Amen - Amen
