Peace as a river


. . . then had thy peace been as a river, and thy righteousness as the waves of the sea. . . . 
1 Nephi. 20: 18.

A river of peace flows to waves of the sea,
where righteousness vast is available free.
Free for the taking and free to enjoy,
since gatekeepers there the Lord does not employ.
He alone welcomes me, looks to my soul,
decides if I'm ready and tempered and whole.
And if I am not, then in mercy He stays
my entry until I obey more in praise.
