I Am For Peace

Yahweh is my light and my salvation,
Who shall i fear? !
I am for peace but when i speak to them,
They are for war! !
The heart of my people had grown hard,
And their ears are dull of hearing;
Yahweh is my witness but,
They are always setting traps for me.
With their eyes closed, how can they see?
The lusts of their own minds have dishonoured their bodies,
Like sheep without a shepherd;
I am for peace but when i speak to them,
They are for war.
