[Crying flute enters slowly] Mmm…
oh
Lord…
When
my
heart
is
tired…
When
I
don't
understand…
Let
Your
peace
surround
me…
Verse 1
Are
you
the
owner
of
your
soul?
You
wake
up
in
the
morning—
Can
you
thank
God?
You
wake
up
in
the
morning,
But
you're
complaining…
You
forget
that
somebody
didn't
wake
up
today.
Take
a
breath…
Look
around
you…
It
is
God
who
kept
you
alive.
It
is
God
who
carried
you
this
far.
Pre-Chorus
When
the
tears
fall,
When
the
road
is
hard,
When
my
prayers
seem
unanswered,
I
will
still
trust
You,
Lord.
Chorus
May
the
peace
of
God
surround
me,
May
the
peace
of
God
surround
me,
May
the
peace
of
God
surround
you.
When
my
heart
is
broken,
Let
Your
peace
carry
me
through.
May
the
peace
of
God
surround
me,
May
the
peace
of
God
surround
you.
May
the
peace
of
God
surround
you.
In
the
darkness,
in
the
storm,
Lord,
let
Your
peace
remain.
God
said: “
I
will
contend
with
the
one
who
contends
with
you.”
So
I
will
not
be
afraid.
I
may
cry,
but
I
won't
give
up.
I
may
fall,
but
You
will
lift
me.
I
may
lose
people,
I
may
lose
hope,
But
I
will
not
lose
You.
Because
You
are
still
God
when
I
don't
understand.
Chorus
May
the
peace
of
God
surround
me,
May
the
peace
of
God
surround
you.
When
the
tears
are
falling,
Let
Your
peace
carry
me
through.
May
the
peace
of
God
surround
our
nation,
May
Your
peace
surround
Nigeria.
From
city
to
city,
From
heart
to
heart,
May
the
peace
of
God
surround
Nigeria
forever.
Bridge —
emotional,
almost
crying
Believe
in
God…
Even
when
your
prayers
feel
unheard.
Believe
in
God…
Even
when
you
lose
someone
you
love.
Believe
in
God…
Even
when
life
hurts
so
much
you
don't
know
what
to
say.
Keep
trusting
Him…
Some
answers
take
time.
Some
pain
has
a
purpose.
You
may
not
understand
it
today…
But
one
day…
one
day
you
will
understand…
God
never
let
you
give
up.
[Flute cries softly between each line] Prayer
