The Truth for Which We Long

Where is the peace for which we long?
     It’s found within our hearts,
For there we know that we belong
     To Him who life imparts.

For life from Him’s the greatest gift,
     The source from which we love,
As praise from lips to Him we lift–
     Soars on the wings of Dove.

From dark desires He sets hearts free
     So life from Him is loosed,
And we are who we’re meant to be,
     The bearers of His truth.

His truth is peace that sets hearts free
     To love and to adore:
His truth that we are meant to see
     And live forever more.
