EXPLANATION OF THE GLOSSING SYSTEM
(to understand how I describe the signs in this translation).

Refrain: INFORM"all" WORLD, YOURSELVES SOFT-HEARTED. WHY? MEAN WORLD KNOW GOD NEAR US. ||: DON'T WORRY. :|| CONTACT GOD THROUGH PRAYER, THROUGH PRAYER. EVERYTHING (2h)YOU LEARN++, KEEP-IN-MIND. PLUS EVERYTHING (2h)YOU (<) alt.HEAR, (>) alt.SEE. ||: GOD, HIS PEACE :|| GO-TOGETHER (2h)YOU WILL.

1. (<) EVERTHING TRUE, (>) EVERYTHING JUST. (<) IDEA PURE, (>) ENJOY DISCUSS, WORTH PRAISE"each". ||: THINK-ABOUT THAT*. :|| Refrain

2. ||: GOD HIS PEACE :|| WE UNDERSTAND FULL, NOT-YET. HE-rt PROTECT YOUR HEART, HE-rt GUIDE YOUR MIND THROUGH CHRIST JESUS. Refrain


Notes: SOFT-HEARTED - HEART + (2h)[5^] descend slightly twice while closing to (2h)[O^].

DON'T - (2h)[B], POs down, cross at wrists, then uncross moving horizontally and emphatically. For a QuickTime movie of this sign, see ASL browser - don't.

The signs between "||:" and ":||" are to be repeated.

KEEP-IN-MIND - Thumb of [A dot], PO away, touches temple and head ducks down slightly.

GO-TOGETHER - (2h)[A] press palms together and move away.

JUST - (2h)[B^], POs ><, FOs up, tap FT while moving in a horizontal circle.

PURE - like NICE but the DH moves backwards slightly on the palm, pauses, then moves forward rapidly to show intensity.

THINK-ABOUT - Index finger circles temple.

Lyrics:

Refrain: Let your gentleness be known, so all may know the Lord is near. Do not worry; reach out to God in prayer. Stay with all that you have learned, and all that you have heard and seen, and the peace of God will be with you.

1. Whatever is true, whatever is just, all that is pure and pleasing and all that is worthy of praise; think on these things.

2. The peace of God beyond all understanding will guard your hearts and guide your minds in Christ Jesus.
