Prince of Peace to show the way to Heaven

And He said to come unto me now
Your burden will be easier with me
Blessed are the meek and pure in heart
And those in mourning, I’ll set the souls of prisoners free
Yes, it came to pass that the light did shine
And never did a man speak like this man
And His name is called Wonderful
He’ll give you life if you’ll believe He can

Chorus
