A realistic and encouraging episode. If we seek peace alone, we will never find it, because only Christ is the Prince of Peace. Chad explains, consoles and encourages yet again in this often overlooked book of scripture. This is our final episode on Song of Songs and the songs of Isaiah is coming next. The beautiful and talented Cathy Schreiner sings "Shalom". Please tell your friends about Hidden Streams.

Lyrics to Shalom:

Shalom, shalom

Come in through my door

My heart is Your home

My Savior, my Lord

Shalom, shalom

I’m held in Your care

Peace in my soul

The covering I wear

My thirst is quenched

My hunger is sated

By the Savior who loves me

And patiently waited

In the time of trouble

In my time of grief

To flow down like water

A flood of relief

Down through my vineyards

Into my garden with kindness and love

Shalom, shalom

Come in through my door

My heart is Your home

My Savior, my Lord

Shalom, shalom

I’m held in Your care

Peace in my soul

The covering I wear

When darkness surrounds

And all understanding

is dimmed by fear

Storm clouds arise

Yet I see in Your eyes

That all is well, here

You are the peace

When You change all my plans

You are the peace

Who steadies my hands

Sending peace through my vineyards

Into my garden with kindness and love
