595. Peace to Soothe Our Bitter Woes
1 Peace to soothe our bitter woes,
God in Christ on us bestows;
Jesus bought our peace with God
With His holy, precious blood;
Peace in Him for sinners found,
Is the Gospel's joyful sound.
2 Peace to us the Church doth tell,
'Tis her welcome and farewell:
Peace ws our baptismal dow'r,
Peace shall bless our dying hour;
Peace be with you, full and free,
Now and through eternity.
