The Prince of Peace Reigns

Happy is the heart that finds everlasting Truth
  and receives what money can't buy.
For their soul will never thirst, and they drink from the fountain
  of Living Water that never runs dry.  

Content is the soul redeemed
by the Blood
  of the perfect, sacrificial Son.
For they have found mercy for all their many sins
  and His grace has
forgiven each one.  

Blessed is the life -
living sold out for Christ
  and committed to pursuing His plan.
For they know there's one Gospel
and people need to hear it
  so they serve Him however they can.

Peaceful is the spirit
of the hearts who desire
  the very righteousness
 of God on his throne.
For they live with the purpose
of the Kingdom of God
  ..the greatest calling this earth has known.  

Joyful is the servant
who walks in obedience
  by receiving and living His Word.
For His Spirit speaks to them...
and they know His voice
  is far better than any counsel they've heard.  

Humble are the people
who walk by His precepts
  to give Him glory as
each new days starts.
For the Prince of Peace reigns
 in full honor and splendor
  as He sits on the throne of their hearts.
