a little peace is greater than all the riches of the world

it cannot be bought nor taken has it’s ownership bestowed

for oh so many seek it but one thing they must know

a distraught entangled spirit cannot reap this hallowed soil

no, it is yet a combination of earth turned prepared and toiled

and the seeds that are planted grow only where they find nourishment and food

sunlight lifts the heads and hearts water the soul

a little peace is greater than all the riches of this world

look in the face of those that have it and you will see they found the gold
