Kristen has been a wonderful friend who has a special way to communicating peace to everyone around her. I can see her calmly selling candy bars in the middle of a war zone (which isn’t all that far from the truth since she participates in Civil War Reenactments).

The most prominent clue is the hammer dulcimer part. Kristen plays this instrument nicely, and with her brother Steven contributed to some wonderful performances of Quiet Victory. There also is a second clue in the opening accompaniment rhythm; I returned to using Morse Code to spell her initials.

Live the way of peace,
Give Jesus Christ all your ways,
Let your struggles now cease,
Honor His name with your praise.

Peace is the life which Jesus taught,
Holy peace within,
Peace is the gift which Jesus bought
by dying for our sin.

Peace is the way which Jesus preached,
Living in God’s love,
Peace came to those He touched and reached,
Salvation from above.

Peace is the destiny of faith,
The end of sin and war,
Peace bring us vict’ry over death,
And glory evermore.
