D | G | D | |
Far away in the depths of my | spirit to | night |
E7 | A | |
Rolls a melody | sweeter than | psalm; |
D | G | |
In | celestial strains it un | ceasingly falls |
D | A7 | D | |
O'er my | soul like an | infinite | calm. |
Chorus: |
D | G | D | |
Peace, peace, | wonderful | peace, |
Bm | E7 | A | |
Coming | down from the | Father a | bove! |
D | G | |
Sweep over my spirit fore | ver, I pray |
D | A7 | D | |
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! |
Chorus |
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! |
Chorus |
And I think when I rise to that city of peace, |
Where the Anchor of peace I shall see, |
That one strain of the song which the ransomed will sing |
In that heavenly kingdom will be: |
Chorus |
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 of this peace so sublime! |
Chorus |
