Author: Shirley Erena Murray Hymnal: New Hymns of Hope #34 Meter: 8.8.10.8 Lyrics: 1 Christ is our peace, Christ is our health,
he the true Word, his the true wealth –
gifts to be shared by the simple and poor:
peace in your land, peace at your door.
2 Peace in your mouth, peace in the hands
open to truth, to love's demands:
those who would go with Christ also must bleed –
bright is the flower, burst is the seed.
3 Who work for peace find the true wealth,
who heal the hurt find their own health –
peace will flow on through the hearts that believe:
this may we know, thus may we live. Topics: Peace Languages: English Tune Title: SAM-KIAP
Christ is our peace, Christ is our health
