[Verse 1]
G C G
Far away in the depths of my spirit tonight
A7 D
Rolls a melody sweeter than psalm;
G C G
In celestial-like strains it unceasingly falls
D7 G
O’er my soul like an infinite calm.
[Chorus]
G C G
Peace, peace, wonderful peace,
Em A7 D
Coming down from the Father above!
G C G
Sweep over my spirit forever, I pray
D7 G
In fathomless billows of love!
[Verse 2]
G C G
What a treasure I have in this wonderful peace,
A7 D
Buried deep in the heart of my soul,
G C G
So secure that no power can mine it away,
D7 G
While the years of eternity roll!
[Verse 3]
G C G
I am resting tonight in this wonderful peace,
A7 D
Resting sweetly in Jesus’ control;
G C G
For I’m kept from all danger by night and by day,
D7 G
And His glory is flooding my soul!
[Verse 4]
G C G
And I think when I rise to that city of peace,
A7 D
Where the Author of peace I shall see,
G C G
That one strain of the song which the ransomed will sing
D7 G
In that heavenly kingdom will be!
[Verse 5]
G C G
Ah soul, are you here without comfort and rest,
A7 D
Marching down the rough pathway of time?
G C G
Make Jesus your friend ere the shadows grow dark;
D7 G
Oh, accept this sweet peace so sublime!
