Wonderful Peace

https://youtu.be/ySPQcp5hIqM

 

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]
