In perfect peace
O gracious Lord
No fears my heart molest
For Thou
whose voice controls the deep
Can soothe my care to rest.
Thy perfect peace Thou givest me
My ever present guide;
Thy perfect peace thou leavest me—
What can I ask beside?
In perfect peace from day to day
I learn Thy righteous will
And with a love that questions not
Obey and follow still.
In perfect peace the clouds I view
The gathering storm I see
For Thou hast taught my soul to know
It shall be well with me.
In perfect peace
O gracious Lord
Till life’s last hour shall close
I’ll sing Thy goodness o’er and o’er
And on Thy love repose.
