Peace Can Be Found In The Storm

You think you hurt and that life has treated you so unkindly

Friend let me tell you about someone who endured so much more

He endured more than any human upon this earth has before


He was laughed at and mocked by those whom he loved

He was wounded for our sins as well

By those whom he taught about God and good

His whereabouts to the enemies they still did tell


He was spat upon lashed, beaten beyond belief

Nowhere upon earth did his body find relief


His own mother watched him die

All sh could do was watch them torture him

Her son as she winced in pain on his behalf

“Oh how she did cry”!


He was torn, and tattered, beaten and scorned

Yet I am sure he hurt more for the hearts

That were broken and for all who for his death, mourned

He took so little for himself, for he came as a servant to all

And not once as he hang upon the cross suffering

Upon his many angels for help did he call!


So unworthy are we still of his life he gave for all

Don’t look back at who has hurt you the most

Or what is not right in your lives

For if Jesus hadn’t died for us-

Friend, you wouldn’t have a life at all!
