53. Peace In Christ

1 Peace that passeth understanding
Floods my soul since Christ I found,
Yielding self to his commanding
Tread my feet on solid ground.

Refrain:
Peace in Christ, O wondrous peace,
In foll’wing Him from day to day.
There is peace, such heav’nly peace,
Walking where he leads the way.

2 Never need we wait or falter,
He is ready all the time;
Stepping first upon the altar
Heav’nly heights we soon shall climb. [Refrain]

3 Saved alike from sin and sorrow,
Restful calm which knows no doubt,
Comes at once, nor waits the morrow,
Fear by perfect love cast out. [Refrain]

4 Heav’n on earth finds its beginning,
Paths grow brighter every day:
While the soul new heights is winning,
Walking where he leads the way. [Refrain]
