The peace of God—O bless­èd peace,
That fills the heart and calms our fears,
That bids our soul’s wild tu­mult cease,
And gives us sun­light thro’ our tears.

Refrain

We’ll rest in this won­der­ful peace,
So blest and so filled with God’s love,
Till our souls find hap­py re­lease,
And we reach the man­sions above.

The peace of God—O peace di­vine,
That bids our rest­less souls be still,
Till thro’ the clouds the sun doth shine,
And we be­hold His per­fect will.

Refrain

The peace of God—O rest­ful peace,
Thro’ all life’s chang­ing scenes be­low;
In this we’ll rest till life shall cease,
And Heav’n’s eter­nal peace we know.

Refrain

Author of peace, to Thee we raise
Our pray­er for strength, to e’er en­dure
The ills we meet, till all our days
Find rest in Thee, Thy peace se­cure.
