The stillness of the peace of God is mine.

It's not easy living in time,
But I've seen God's Holy Sign,
And I hope you believe in rhymes,
'Cause the Peace of God is mine --

My mind's been stilled
While my heart's been filled --
My emotions are thrilled,
And my soul is fulfilled --

Undisturbed tranquility
Is something rare for me,
But it has great utility:
Let's move beyond futility --

Can you believe it?
Can you conceive it?
I'd like to receive it,
But how to achieve it?

Don't be perturbed
If you are disturbed --
Just dismiss it,
And you won't miss it --
In the very least,
You'll return to peace --

Nothing can intrude
Upon your interlude,
When you give up fear
And hold God near.

It's God's Gift -- 
No one can steal it;
It's God's Peace -- 
We all can feel it.

How can illusions satisfy God's Son?

Now I can finally see
That Truth belongs to me,
And dreams will not content me
Now that I know who sent me --

Why should I feel so empty
When illusions always tempt me?
Well, go ahead and try me --
Lies won't satisfy me.

I'm thinking with God's Memory,
In a true poetic reverie,
And it's so elementary --
Since we're complementary
And I'm no accessory --
I'm seeking Heaven's entry --

With all the love I've been given
My home is in Heaven --
In Christ I am livin'
And we are all forgiven.

Forever still, and forever safe,
Abiding in God's Holy Place,
The true goal of the human race --
Fear and guilt we now erase --
With Christ our Hell has been replaced.

With dreams I'm not content -- 
My resistance has been spent --
Material things all came and went,
But the Truth of God is Heaven-sent.

Christ's is the vision I will use today.

Now I see the real you,
And this will help me start anew --
You're a witness to what is true --
Christ's is the vision I will choose,
So Christ's is the vision I will use.

I've been waiting too long
For the things I look upon --
The Holy Spirit makes me strong --
I finally found where I belong.

God's Creation and the world now meet --
Death and pain have now been beat --
I'm ready for my Heavenly seat --
My entire life is now complete.

I've made my Heavenly choices --
I listen to Heavenly Voices,
And every soul rejoices,
Giving up our earthly toys --

The body breathes its breath,
But I've defeated death --
Truth is all that's left --
God's Love gives all that's best.

I will not use the body's eyes today.

Here's what I want to say:
I won't use the body's eyes today --
Everything will be okay --
The eyes of Christ are here to stay --

Christ's vision fills me,
His presence thrills me,
And always will He be
The Light my eyes see.

When we enter Heaven
Our sins are forgiven --
It's not a place in time,
But a place in your mind.

Let me translate for you:
This world has hate for you --
God's Truth won't wait for you,
But He won't dictate to you.

God is gracious,
His world is spacious,
And He's expectant
When we're repentant.

It's time you acknowledge
God's infinite knowledge --
His Thoughts are yours,
And they open all doors --

Far beyond any human limit,
Whatever you see, God is in it --
Truth is Truth and you can't spin it --
If you want change you have to begin it --

And you can't help but feel
What God wants you to heal --
It's time to make a deal --
God's Love you cannot steal --

It's time to play your holy role --
It will make you wholly whole --
God's Band Wagon is on a roll --
Jump on it now and save your soul.

My sight goes forth to look upon Christ's face.

This world can be depressing,
And the things we see distressing,
So it's time to quit messing,
And seek only God's blessing --

God is the way and the truth and the light,
And only He will show you what's right --
And only He has the might
To give you Holy sight.

So it's time for rejection
Of our old perception,
And it's time for resurrection
To attend God's reception --

He wants to teach you,
He won't impeach you,
Now I beseech you:
Make all your speech true --

See Christ's face
In every place,
And In every trace
Of the human race.

God's people all are freed --
Our sight is blessed indeed --
In time of greatest need
His Word we finally heed.

God has the ways and means
To save us from our earthly schemes,
So when Christ's face you see
You'll know your true identity.

Let all things be exactly as they are.

Though this world seems strange, it
Seems that we can't change it --
Why do we berate this world
Since God did create this world?

If we can't change the world,
Or even rearrange the world,
Then we really can't reject it --
We have to just accept it.

So don't begrudge God 
If you can't judge God --
Don't criticize God,
Just realize God.

It's much more fun 
To let His Will be done 
And play in the sun --
You are His Son,
And so is everyone.

So change your eyes to see
God's eternal unity --
Nothing new will frighten me --
I am as God created me --

And now I see reality,
That God has made us free --
For once and finally,
We have to let it be.

My heart is beating in the peace of God.

When you're released by God
You have the peace of God --
He doesn't detain you,
But His Love sustains you.

Like magic conjures you,
His Voice assures you --
When He is calling
You spirits stop falling.

When He takes your heart,
It's just the start
Of living together
With Him forever.

Each breath you breathe
Did God conceive,
And the end of breath
Does not mean death.

We make the transition
On our own volition,
But it takes recognition
Of our human condition.

When we are healed,
And Truth is revealed,
God's Light's not concealed,
Though your fate is then sealed --
So here is the deal:

You are never alone --
At last you've come Home.

My holy Self abides in you, God's Son.

This day we go to Paradise
And find it's really nice --
Let's give up separation
So we can find Salvation.

We're all bound together
Like birds of a feather --
Flying in the same flock,
Living by the same clock,
Flying in the same place,
Living by the same grace --

Abiding in God,
Not hiding from God --
Trying to be brave;
Trying to be saved.

We all took flight
When God gave us sight,
And now we see things --
Flying with angel wings.

For one and for all,
This world looks small --
In whatever I see,
Christ looks back at me,
Saying I am Holy,
And to love Him only.

Creation's gentleness is all I see.

This world's a reflection
Of my own imperfection,
And every sin I see
Is looking back at me,
For now I know perception
Gives falsehood and deception.

Still I was always deceived
By what I always believed,
But God loves me I know --
His Creation tells me so.

Fear and pain are mental,
But Creation's very gentle --
It always shines through time,
Makes each word a rhyme,
And opens up your mind.

So your Self you'll see
In its true divinity,
And what exists must be,
For we can never flee
From God's Reality.

When you abolish sin
Your true life can begin --
Just change your perception
To see your perfection,
And your divine resurrection --
You'll see your connection
As God's True Reflection.

I am surrounded by the Love of God

God now stands before you,
And will always adore you --
The truth He expounded --
With Love we're surrounded,

He always will see you,
So you just have to be you --
And wherever you will go,
Your truth He will know --

So try to understand
That every human hand
Gives you what it can --
There was no Fall of Man.

And as time disappears,
So will all your fears,
So give up what confounds you
While God's Love surrounds you.

And remember that of course,
God is your only Source,
And all that ever can be
He's made ever holy,
So now we have to see
That He made Eternity
To give us all serenity.

So we're forever in prayer --
Come together in prayer --
And thank God for Salvation --
Our only obligation.

My holy vision sees all things as pure.

From God all things inure,
And everything is pure,
So don't be frustrated
With what God created --
What He's demonstrated
Cannot be debated:
We are not sinners;
With Him we're winners.

If your eyes are full of tears
'Cause your mind is full of fears,
Then it's time to address it --
Just ask God to bless it.

Things you see may seem
To be a madman's dream,
But don't laugh with derision:
It may be God's Vision.

We should hear God's Voice
Before we make our choice,
Then choose God's Security,
His Love, and His Purity.

To you these things are given
Inside the gates of Heaven,
Where everything you feared
Now has disappeared --

And you let them go
Because you didn't know
That it isn't so --
Now go 
With God's flow --
Your boat He'll row --
To His Home you will go.

Let me perceive no differences today.

God's in all things we perceive
So in God we must believe --
Each person is the norm,
No matter what their form.

Since we're all One 
Let's have some fun --
We have no obligation
But to join in God's Creation.

Although there is no parity 
There's also no disparity,
Since we have total Unity
With every thing we see.

Because we share God's Name
Each person is the same --
We were all born in His Manger --
He's Our Father, not a stranger.

So don't fight with God,
Know the might of God,
And unite with God --
You'll be right with God.

Like everyone 
You are His Son,
And you're not alone --
We've all come Home.

God is my refuge and security.

This world is helter skelter,
But God provides me shelter --
I'm safe from every infidel
While living in His Citadel.

And no one can attack
Me when He has my back,
For I'll suffer no lack
When on His Holy Track.

You can come along --
We won't wait long --
With God we're strong --
With Him we do belong.

I have no more resistance
Since He is my whole existence --
He removes all our danger,
And makes fear a stranger.

In His Mold He does the casting,
Making peace that's everlasting --
With Him as our holy refuge
We're safe from every deluge.

Knowing our perfection
He gives us each protection  --
And with His great affection,
We have divine connection.

He's with us for Eternity,
And so we know serenity --
He is our true identity,
And our only true security.

Let me remember God created me.

The truth is often berated,
And makes us feel frustrated,
But it's been demonstrated:
It's YOU God created.

Of God's Creation you're a part --
To feel this in your heart 
Is an excellent start,
'Cause insanity tears us apart.

From God you've been cleft --
Cut into a right and a left --
So you may be feeling bereft,
But still you are blessed.

With Him we have stayed --
At his altar we've prayed --
Though our guilt has been laid,
Doing things He forbade,
And our journey's waylaid
By the ego's tirade --
It's time we must trade --
By God we were made.

Let me remember that there is no sin.

Our memory
   Very cleverly
Gives us every
   Form of reverie --

But sin's the illusion
   That causes confusion --
If conflicts are stacking,
   Sin causes attacking.

And like a cold rain
   Sin causes our pain --
What truths we believe
   Our memories retrieve.

God is the Source 
   We can't live without --
Our belief in sin 
   Is the source of all doubt.

So don't even try 
   To hide from God,
Instead please just 
   Confide in God --

If before Our Father
   Your worries are laid,
You'll no longer need 
   To be afraid.

And the goal of God 
   Can be obtained
When your love for Him's 
   No longer restrained --

Your self image only 
   Becomes contorted
When the truth of who 
   You are's distorted.

And this I know for sure:
Your Self is truly pure,
And Truth will still endure.

So say it again,
   And do not condemn:
All truth will win --
   Our heads will spin --
Just smile and grin --
   Peace lies within:
There is no sin.

Let me remember that my goal is God.

It's not a distant memory,
'Cause what shall be shall be,
For now I plainly see
What God has planned for me.

Though someone stole
My heavenly role,
I paid the toll,
But God's my goal.

There is no doubt
When truth comes out --
I feel disdain
For earthly pain.

God's priceless grace
Shines in my face --
What am I thinking?
My eyes are blinking

On a priceless treasure,
With worth past measure --
It is no earthly pleasure.

I'll say goodbye to earthly toys
When offered Heavenly joys --
I hear a joyful noise 
And the timbre of God's Voice --
I'm called home to rejoice.

Let me remember what my purpose is.

When choice is restricted
You may feel conflicted,
But here's my prediction:
We'll end contradiction.

Your mind and heart are unified --
To God's Will we're forever tied --
Your Self can't be denied,
And truth can't be defied.

But Let me confess:
I'm under duress,
And feeling stress,
'Cause the world is a mess.

So if you're depressed,
And can hardly get dressed,
You may need a rest,
And here's what's best:

Remember what you're supposed to do --
What God has always planned for you --
This is what you're meant to do,
And what God now intends for you,
So it's time to start your life anew.

Forgive every sin 
   You think you committed --
You are not guilty
   For you've been acquitted --
And always thank God 
   For the love He transmitted --
To His Will
   We are always submitted.
