[Intro]

My little Grace, my little Elijah, my Zack

I don't know about you, but I want peace

Mm, what a concept

Sweet peace, mm

[Verse 1]

Hey, kids, turn off the TV

No, I don't wanna watch the evening news

So come on over here and sit down next to me

And let your mama look at you and you and you

And your beautiful faces

That I wanna keep safe as long as I can

And I'm telling you right now

[Chorus]

There's gonna be peace in this house

There's gonna be peace in this house

Gonna be some tender talkin' and some sweet little nothings

That add up to the somethings we can live without

There's gonna be peace in this house

Some belief in this house

And every good thing that ever happens

Happens from the inside out, I'm telling you now

There's gonna be peace in this house

[Verse 2]

Did I tell you today that I love you?

You're the reasons for everything I do

And sometimes I think the only hope for this world

Is the love in you, and you and you

So let's try to be patient and let's all play nice

'Cause everybody's gonna get, get a little slice of this pie

[Chorus]

There's gonna be peace in this house

There's gonna be peace in this house

Gonna be some tender talkin' and some sweet little nothings

That add up to the somethings we can live without

There's gonna be peace in this house

Some belief in this house

And every good thing that ever happens

Starts from the inside out, I'm telling you now, mm

There's gonna be peace in this house

[Post-Chorus]

Are you listening?

Sweet peace, mm

And every good thing that ever happens

Starts from the inside out, I'm telling you now

There's gonna be peace in this house

[Outro]

Amen

Oh, thank you

The older I get, the sappier I get, you know, ha

Thank you

And as we come to a close, I, um, I thank you for being here for me

I, uh, no matter what's going on in my life, I, I know that I have people that um, are there for me

And um, you're like my guardian angels

I wake up in a different parking lot every day

It's very glamorous

And I travel, I have been since I was eighteen years old, looking for a place to belong

And I found my way, by the grace of God

And um, as long as I have my faith and my family and my guitar, I can show up anywhere

And I can, um, if I'm open, if I'm, if I show up and I'm open

Instead of um, playing, trying so hard and as Don Potter, you said earlier, let God play me

You know I've had those shows where I try to do all that I can to be cool, to be shining bright

I just wanna be loved and I wanna be myself and you've allowed me to do that

And I'll always be grateful that I didn't have to get a real job, you know

I love you, you're um, you're very loved

Even on your best and worst day

And you um, you kept me from giving up

I've come so close so many times, but I uh, I remain

Steve Mackey back there on bass, I love you

And Harry Sharpe on keyboards over here, I love you
