Smalltown Poets - The Gospel Is
Peace
from the album "Listen Closely"
Pour the oil on troubled waters
Come around lay down arms
Rest between the pure in heart and persecuted
Sound alarms to make calm
Mend the fence convincing some
The Spirit’s sense of mercy
Live the Gospel and the Gospel is His peace
Oh, Oh, Oh
Heal the breach and reach out
With the olive branch, allay fear
Live the seventh blessing and expect
To be an heir of God
Meet halfway to pacify
The longing with an answer
Live the Gospel and the Gospel is His peace
Oh, Oh, Oh
For a kiss from Holiness
Discovering the dove lights only when our hearts agree
There is reverence in this
The offering of heart’s ease for a spiritual wave of peace
Oh, Oh, Oh
