Wonderful Peace

Far away in the depths of my spirit to-nightRolls a melody sweeter than psalm;In celestial-like strains it unceasingly fallsO’er my soul like an infinite calm.

Refrain, after each versePeace! peace! wonderful peace!Coming down from the Father above,Sweep over my spirit for ever, I pray,In fathomless billows of love.

What a treasure I have in this wonderful peace,Which abides in the depths of my soul,So secure that no power can e’er take it awayWhile the years of eternity roll.

I am resting to-night in this wonderful peace,I have yielded to Jesus’ control;For I’m kept from all danger by night and by day,And His glory is filling my soul.

And methinks when I rise to that city of peace,Where its Author with joy I shall see,That one of the songs which the ransomed will singIn that heavenly kingdom shall be:
