The Missing Piece was the Missing Peace

Walkin' in the pourin' rain
Not understandin' the pain
Reachin' here here and reachin' there
No matter what I try I just despair

What is the missing piece in my life?
Crazy controversy cuts me like a knife
God you know I've tried this and I've tried that
No matter what I try I just can't...just can't

    Walkin' in the pourin' rain
    Not understandin' the pain
    Reachin' here and reachin' there
    No matter what I try I just despair

Suddenly His still small voice speaks
I've been seekin' it for years and months and weeks
I've been seekin' God's awesome peace
That's it!  That's the missing piece

    I was walkin' in the pourin' rain
    Not understandin' the pain
    I was reachin' here here and reachin' there
    No matter what I tried I just despaired

But now God's Son has shined through in the gift of the Holy Ghost
The missing piece was the missing peace which is Him:  Shalom...Shalom
