I
Life is a few days of trouble a wise man once said
but I’ll not complain for I’m sheltered I’m clothed and I’m fed.
Many’s the trials my wants and my dreams put me through
and the only real peace that I have dear Lord is in you.
II
The higher I soar in my dreams the harder I fall
and sometimes I wonder if dreams are worth dreaming at all.
But my disappointments won’t keep me blinded and blue
not when I am reminded of that sweet peace I have Lord in you.
chorus
The only real peace that I have dear Lord is in you.
The only real peace that I have dear Lord is in you.
With all life’s frustrations I need you and I know I do
cause the only real peace that I have dear Lord is in you.
