Peculiar Peace

"Because I live, ye shall live also.... Peace I leave with you, My peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid" (John 14:19,27).

How fragile is this world's peace
That gives no peace of mind!
Her wars continue and increase,
In spite of treaties signed.

How different is the peace of Christ
That Jesus freely gives;
Procured when He was sacrificed,
Secure because He lives.
