Peace In This Place

If I sit in the dunghill and ashes
Or I stand in the courtyard of kings
You are still Lord of my circumstances
I’ll not be swayed by possessions or things

Give me just what I need as my portion
Just enough that I still seek Your face
I will have all I need to keep signing
For You’re provider of the peace in this place

You are the peace, the peace in this place
You are provider of the peace in this place

If I look to the past at Your mercy
Or if I live in the strength this day brings
I can know I will still find You faithful
You are Lord of what waits in the wings

When I give You the throne of my kingdom
You will rule it with justice and grace
I will have all I need to keep singing
For You are provider of the peace in this place
