Each chapter of "Hymns of Peace" reviews the lyrics to the hymn, information about the author, and reflections about the love of God and the way of Jesus. The word peace in hymns as well as in the Bible is used in a number of different ways. First, there is the peace of world peace. Second, there is the peace of relationships, of getting along with people and resolving conflict with others. Third, there is the peace of inner peace, which comes by the gift of God. Because there are at least three different kinds of peace referred to in our hymns and scriptures, all of them are included in this book, "Hymns of Peace."Other books about hymns written by John Zehring include "Music of the Spheres: Hymns on Loving and Tending the Earth" and "Be Still My Soul: Soothing Hymn Meditations."
