Wonderful Peace

 

Peace I leave with you; My peace I give to you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled; do not be afraid.  John 14:27

Wonderful Peace
Lyrics by W.D. Cornell

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

REFRAIN:

Peace, peace!
Wonderful peace,
Coming down from
the Father above,
Sweep over my spirit
Forever, I pray,
In fathomless
Billows of love.

What a treasure I have in this wonderful peace
Buried deep in the heart of my soul,
So secure that no power can mine it away
While the years of eternity roll.  -
REFRAIN

I am resting tonight in this wonderful peace,
Resting sweetly in Jesus’ control,
For I’m kept from all danger by night and by day,
And His glory is flooding my soul.  -
REFRAIN

Ah! soul, are you here without comfort and rest,
Marching down the rough pathway of time?
Make Jesus your friend ere the shadows grow dark
O accept His sweet peace so sublime! -
REFRAIN
