Lyrics

Peace

Verse 1
My soul is weary from trying to find a peace on earth that I cannot find.
This world offers many things that promise to enlight your mind,
Fame, fortune, monetary success,
offer momentary happiness, but cannot fill the emptiness

Chorus
So, I lift my eyes up, to the mountains, that?s where my help comes from.
He gives me peace beyond understanding.
Peace beyond understanding.

Verse 2
I?m hypnotized by what this world says that I can be.
Under constant attack, by the unseen enemy.
Greed, jealousy, hate and pride, all work together to try to such my eyes,
Buy I won?t let?em. No, I won?t let?em.

Chorus
So, I lift my eyes up, I lift my eyes up,
I lift my eyes up, to the mountains, that?s where my help comes from.
He gives me peace beyond understanding.
Peace beyond understanding.
Peace beyond understanding.
Peace beyond understanding.

Verse 3
My daily mission is to fulfill my divine purpose for life,
Though I often get caught up in the struggle, fuss & fight, I find myself
Paralyzed by fear, stopped by confusion, yielding to circumstance, and detoured by disillusion
I ask for guidance, and look for a sign, but that?s hard find
in this world where truth and lies are so intertwine, so I fall further behind.
And just when I think the darkness will envelope and surround me,
I lift my eyes up and receive peace beyond all understanding.

Chorus
Peace beyond understanding.
Peace beyond understanding.

So, I lift my eyes up, to the mountains, that?s where my help comes from.
He gives me peace beyond understanding.
Peace beyond understanding.
Peace beyond understanding.
Peace beyond understanding.
