In the middle of trouble
I can have hope, joy and peace
A relationship with God
That never will cease.
So although in this world
Suffering and trials increase
Through everything; everywhere
I can have hope, joy and peace.
For Jesus Christ has promised
That if I simply believe
I’ll be reconciled to God
Peace and forgiveness receive.
Poem based on John 16:33
“You may have peace in me. Here on earth you will have many trials and sorrows but take heart, because I have overcome the world.”
