Lyrics

May peace walk here beside you. May God's love be in your hearts.
A light to shine around round you, a jewel's many parts.
May life smile kindly on you and help you look to the sky.
Take courage from the message delivered from on high.
Be still and know the Lord God, who hears when ever we call.
A voice to reassure us, to hold us lest we fall.
May angels watching o'er you take cares and troubles away.
The peace of God go with you as night turns into day.
The peace of God uphold you, be still and walk his way.
