If kneel­ing at the gate of pray­er,
My soul has laid its bur­den there;
If sealed with blood and cleansed from sin
I hear a voice that speaks with­in…

Refrain

God’s peace I’ll know,
God’s peace I’ll know,
I’ll praise His name wher­e’er I go;
In storm or calm, in bliss or woe,
In life or death, in life or death
God’s peace, God’s peace I’ll know.

If dear to me the sac­red page,
The lamp of youth, the staff of age,
If on the rock I stand se­cure,
My hope un­moved, my an­chor sure…

Refrain

If pa­tient faith my heart in­spire
And kin­dle there de­vo­tion’s fire,
If trust­ing on from day to day
I learn to wait, be­lieve, obey…

Refrain

If pure in spi­rit I be­hold
A wealth whose joy has ne’er been told,
If faith and work with me abide,
And I thro’ faith am jus­ti­fied…
