In peace.

'While they were still talking about this, Jesus himself stood among
them and said to them, "Peace be with you." ' NIV Luke 24:36

When I am down and blue, I know
There is a devil from below
So please dear God just let me fly
To be with you; let me not die.

And when I hurt someone I love
Not living in your Word, above
Please let them know, I love them so
It's just my nature, here, below.

I rush, not think, then there's a stink
Mud's on my face, tis brown, not pink
And then I know I lose my glow
Start looking down, at fire below.

Forgive my stain, erase our pain
Give us Your sunshine, help sustain
And let us look to you, above
And show them all Your deep, sweet love.

In peace

Ah, Newell, your humility shines here..and His forgiveness is ever available...ever present His compassion and Love, for He knows of which we are made!  Ellie

A friend hears the song in my heart, and sings it to me when my memory fails.
