Raylee Bradfield - Peace

I met a man from a faraway land
Where the ground has given up waiting on rain
The children go hungry, they cry on their beds
While their mothers pray silently

This is the world that he sees every day
Though his eyes held no storm
He smiled at me with the warmth of the sun
Like he owned everything

He had peace down in his soul
He had peace down in his soul

We stood at the ocean that he saw for the first time
Oh what a sight to see
Just like a child, he swayed side to side
Singing "Glory, Glory"

He had peace down in his soul
He had peace down in his soul

So wide no storm could blow it over
So deep no grief could swallow it whole
So high it goes all the way to heaven

He had peace down in his soul
He had peace down in his soul

He told me his stories of loss and goodbyes
Of a sorrow not easily erased
But there was no thunder in the tone of his voice
No anger held in his face

Just a gentle sound like an old melody
That my heart has been waiting to hear
So I leaned in to that song that he sung
And it carried off all of my fears

He had peace down in his soul
He had peace down in his soul
He had peace down in his soul
He had peace
