Lyrics

Coming to Je­sus, my Sav­ior, I found
Wonderful peace, wonderful peace;
Storms in their fury may rage all around,
I have peace, sweet peace.

Refrain

Peace, peace, wonderful peace,
Peace, peace, glo­ri­ous peace;
Since my Re­deem­er has ransomed my soul,
I have peace, sweet peace.

Peace like a river, so deep and so broad,
Wonderful peace, wonderful peace;
Resting my soul on the bosom of God,
I have peace, sweet peace.

Refrain

Peace like a holy and infinite calm,
Wonderful peace, wonderful peace,
Like to the strains of an evening psalm,
I have peace, sweet peace.

Refrain

Gone is the battle that once raged within,
Wonderful peace, wonderful peace;
Jesus has saved me and cleansed me from sin,
I have peace, sweet peace.
