Lyrics
Through the blare of angry voices
Over conflicts ill defined
Family units torn asunder
And I struggle to know why
Friends are hastily abandoned
Neighbors needlessly at odds
Hear my voice thru the chaos
Precious Jesus, mend my heart
Shalom, Shalom, Shalom, Shalom
Thru this maze of mindless mayhem
My heart longs for Shalom
Why can't we work together
And try to fix what isn't right
Can we look out for each other
So folks feel save out in the night
And we could disagree politely
Without a nuclear reaction
Still I'm hoping for redemption
A bit of Jesus love in action
Shalom, Shalom, Shalom, Shalom
Thru this maze of mindless mayhem
My heart longs for Shalom
We can choose to feed our monster
Or let the Holy Spirit in
We can stir the pot of conflict
Or we can strive for common ground
We can cling to claims off grievance,
Or in our pain learn to forgive
We can embrace the fall to chaos
But that's not how I want to live
Shalom, Shalom, Shalom, Shalom
Thru this maze of mindless mayhem
My heart longs for Shalom
I pray for Hope, I pray for Healing, I pray for Love
Shalom
