Peace, wonderful peace.


Far away in the depths of my spirit tonight
Rolls a melody sweeter than psalm
In celestial like strains it unceasingly falls
O'er my soul like an infinite calm.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Peace, peace, wonderful peace
Coming down from the Father above
Sweep over my spirit forever I pray
In fathomless billows of love.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Ah, soul are you here without comfort or rest
Marching down the rough pathway of time
Make Jesus your friend ere the shadows grow dark
O, accept this sweet peace so sublime.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Peace, peace, wonderful peace
Coming down from the Father above
Sweep over my spirit forever I pray
In fathomless billows of love.
