How can one enrich his life
What really is the key?
What will make it all worthwhile
And bring God's peace to me?

Paul, the blessed, gives a clue
For those who seek true peace,
There are some things to think about
And too, some things to cease.

In nothing be ye anxious
Rejoice e'er in the Lord,
Praying with a thankful heart
To God, such prayers are heard!

God's peace, surpassing knowledge
Can guard you heart and mind,
If the Lord and Savior
In Jesus Christ you find.

And if you seek what's True
And Noble,Lovely and Good
The Virtuous and Praiseworthy
And "Think on these" as you should...

The God of Peace will be with you
As you learn, receive and do,
That which Paul knew firsthand--
God's peace will come to you.

(Based on Phillipians 4:4-7)
