In this world that we live may the peace rise within
Though there's death and there's fear
And the future unclear, and there's torment and sorrow
Where men kill one another, and all good seems lost
To the helpless be hope, for this world is at war
And all men be restored, For there's one who saves those who have faith
Where there is war be no more but there is peace who adorns.
For the souls rest with peace and the patient persist
For out of nothing rocks rose with authority He spoke
And the future be clear for in His power is real
And all shall come to pass but his Word will Outlast.
In these times, and these places was the war fought of ages
He who came to live and die resurrected and uprise
Now forever more may the Lord restore us whole
For the weak become strong and the fearless move on.
In the one who saves, Jesus Christ is His name.
