Let peace begin with me; let this
be the moment now.
With every step I take, let this
be my solemn vow:
To take each moment and live each
moment in peace eternally!
Let there be peace on earth,
and let it begin with me.
(Hymn 521 Christian Science Hymnal)
Part of striving for a sense of personal peace is having the awareness of and ability to shut out or stop the ‘white noise’ that is incessantly blasted at us. Turning to hymns such as this and a quiet contemplative read of the Bible is a step in the right direction.
