Prince of Peace

Isaiah's prophesied one

Prince of Peace is a title for Jesus Christ, drawn from the prophecy in Isaiah and emphasizing his role as bringer of spiritual harmony and reconciliation.

The phrase appears in Christian hymns, prayers, and theological writing: They sang of the Prince of Peace.

It sometimes extends to anyone seen as a peacemaker or reconciler, though the religious reference remains primary.
