1 To Him who from bondage has bro’t me,
My gracious Redeemer and King;
A tribute of praise will I offer,
A song from my heart will I sing.

Refrain:
Jesus spoke peace to my soul,
Yes, Jesus spoke peace to my soul;
I’ll never forget the sweet moment of bliss,
When Jesus spoke peace to my soul.

2 I’ll sing of His infinite goodness,
His tender compassion so free;
When, lost on the wilds of the desert,
He sought and He saved even me. [Refrain]

3 I’ll walk in the light of His presence,
He leads me wherever He will;
I lean on the staff of His mercy,
And, oh, how it comforts me still. [Refrain]

4 When tempted I cling to His promise,
He takes ev’ry burden away;
My heart with His love is o’erflowing,
And this is the theme of my lay. [Refrain]
