Author: Horatius Bonar Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #2834 Meter: 6.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1. I hear the words of love,
I gaze upon the blood,
I see the mighty sacrifice,
And I have peace with God.
2. ’Tis everlasting peace,
Sure as Jehovah’s name;
’Tis stable as His steadfast throne,
For evermore the same.
3. The clouds may go and come,
And storms may sweep my sky;
This blood-sealed friendship changes not,
The cross is ever nigh.
4. I change—He changes not;
The Christ can never die;
His love, not mine, the resting-place;
His truth, not mine, the tie.
5. My love is oftimes low,
My joy still ebbs and flows;
But peace with Him remains the same,
No change Jehovah knows. Languages: English Tune Title: NEWLAND (Gauntlett)
