1 O for a heart of calm repose Amid the world’s loud roar, A life that like a river flows Along a peaceful shore!
2 Come, Holy Spirit! still my heart With gentleness divine; Indwelling peace Thou canst impart; O make the blessing mine!
3 Above these scenes of storm and strife There spreads a region fair; Give me to live that higher life, And breathe that heavenly air.
4 Come, Holy Spirit! breathe that peace, That victory make me win; Then shall my soul her conflict cease, And find a heaven within.
AMEN.Source: The A.M.E. Zion Hymnal: official hymnal of the African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church #502
