Tune: | [There comes to my heart one sweet strain] |
Composer: | P. P. Bilhorn |
1 There comes to my heart one sweet strain,
A glad and a joyous refrain,
I sing it again and again,
Sweet peace, the gift of God's love.
Chorus:
Peace, peace, sweet peace
Wonderful gift from above
Oh, wonderful, wonderful peace,
Sweet peace the gift of God's love.
2 Thro' Christ on the cross peace was made,
My debt by His death was all paid,
No other foundation is laid,
For peace, the gift of God's love. [Chorus]
3 When Jesus as Lord I had crowned,
My heart with this peace did abound,
In Him the rich blessing I found,
Sweet peace, the gift of God's love. [Chorus]
4 In Jesus for peace I abide,
And as I keep close to His side,
There's nothing but peace doth betide,
Sweet peace, the gift of God's love. [Chorus]
