Author: Adalbert P. Cecil Meter: 8.7.8.7 Appears in 8 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Oh, the peace forever flowing From God’s thoughts of His own Son! Oh, the peace of simply knowing On the cross that all was done! 2 Peace with God! the blood in Heaven Speaks of pardon now to me: Peace with God! the Lord is risen! Righteousness now counts me free. 3 Peace with God is Christ in glory; God is just, and God is love; Jesus died to tell the story, Foes to bring to God above. 4 Now, free access to the Father, Through the Christ of God, we have; By the Spirit here abiding, Promise of the Father’s love. 5 Jesus, Savior, we adore Thee! Christ of God, anointed Son! We confess Thee, Lord of glory, Fruits of victory Thou hast won! Used With Tune: OVIO Text Sources: Gems of Sacred Song by John H.

He that goeth forth with weeping

Author: Thomas Hastings Appears in 270 hymnals Lyrics: 1 He that goeth forth with weeping, Bearing precious seed in love, Never tiring, never sleeping, Findeth mercy from above. 2 Soft descend the dews of heaven, Bright the rays celestial shine; Precious fruits will thus be given, Through an influence all divine. 3 Sow thy seed, be never weary, Let no fears thy soul annoy; Be the prospect ne'er so dreary, Thou shalt reap the fruits of joy. 4 Lo, the scene of verdure brightening! See the rising grain appear; Look again! the fields are whitening, For the harvest-time is near. Amen.
