Make room for peace

May my feet run with the good news of peace for all people

Make room for peace

May my legs be stretched long in the quest for peace

May I breathe peace through every capillary of my body

Make room for peace

Pump peace through my heart, loving God, cause my heart to beat with the rhythm of peace

Make room for peace

May peace encircle my throat as a necklace of love

Make room for peace

May peace usher forth from my mouth as a never failing spring

Make room for peace

See peace. Hear peace. Smell peace. Taste peace. Feel peace in every part
