A Measure Of Peace

October 7, 1987

Onward and upward!

As the old saying goes.

But life isn't always that kind.

At times it goes downwards,

And I fall to the brink,

Of almost loosing my mind.

But always the Spirit directs me to this.

When my soul seems so troubled and lost.

If I would just live for Jesus alone,

And not fear obedience' cost.

Rewards too great to measure are mine.

A peaceful soul in return.

For striving in life is no life at all,

When the joys of true peace are concerned.
