Here is an encouraging and positive statement of faith that will raise spirits from despair to hope. Taken from the inspiring poetic legacy of young peacemaker and author Mattie J.T. Stepanek, this "Heartsong" is written with childlike wonder. Infused with a sense of community, the ballad grows gradually into a statement of the well-known spiritual I've Got Peace Like a River, offering an opportunity for congregational participation.
