588. Because He Died and Is Risen

1 Because he died and is risen,
because he died and is risen,
because he died and is risen,
we now have peace with God through Jesus Christ our Lord.

2 His peace destroys walls between us,
his peace destroys walls between us,
his peace destroys walls between us,
for only he can reconcile us both to God.

3 "My peace I give you," said Jesus,
my peace I give you," said Jesus,
my peace I give you," said Jesus,
"don't let your heart be troubled; do not be afraid."

4 The peace beyond understanding,
the peace beyond understanding,
the peace beyond understanding
will guard the hearts and minds of those who pray.
