God’s almighty arms are round me
Peace
peace is mine;
Judgment scenes need not confound me
Peace
peace is mine.
Jesus came Himself and sought me!
Sold to death He found and bought me!
Then my blessèd freedom taught me
Peace
peace is mine.
While I hear life’s rugged billows
Peace
peace is mine;
Why suspend my harp on willows?
Peace
peace is mine.
I may sing with Christ beside me
Tho’ a thousand ills betide me;
Safely He hath sworn to guide me
Peace
peace is mine.
Every trial draws Him nearer
Peace
peace is mine;
All His strokes but make Him dearer
Peace
peace is mine.
Bless I then the hand that smiteth
Gently
and to heal delighteth;
’Tis against my sins He fighteth
Peace
peace is mine.
Welcome every rising sunlight
Peace
peace is mine;
Nearer home each rolling midnight
Peace
peace is mine.
Death and hell cannot appall me;
Safe in Christ whate’er befall me;
Calmly wait I
till He call me
Peace
peace is mine.
