King of Hearts

There’s no peace for the wicked

Who regard  God with enmity

The peace we need is not from war

When God remains the enemy

Peace, peace, the prophets cry

But there can be no peace

Without the King cruel chaos reigns

And Sin’s slaves still need release

Now behold the Prince of Peace is come

And He will be our True Shalom.

The peace of God this Prince imparts

When He becomes the King of Hearts.

His chastisement brought us peace,

And by his wounds we are healed.

The peace that passes understanding  

Comes to Him whose heart is kneeled.

Behold the Prince of Peace is come

And He will be our True Shalom.

The peace of God this Prince imparts

When He becomes the King of Hearts.
