O Peace Of God, Sweet Peace Of God!
Where Broods On Earth This Gentle Dove!
Where Spread Those Pure And Downy Wings
To Shelter Him Whom God Doth Love?
Whence Comes This Blessing Of The Soul,
This Silent Joy Which Can Not Fade?
This Glory, Tranquil, Holy, Bright,
Pervading Sorrow’s Deepest Shade?
The Peace Of God, The Peace Of God!
It Shines As Clear ’Mid Cloud And Storm
As In The Calmest Summer Day,
’Mid Chill As In The Sunlight Warm.
O Peace Of God! Earth Hath No Power
To Shed Thine Unction O’er The Heart;
Its Smile Can Never Bring It Here
Its Frown Ne’er Bid Its Light Depart.
Calm Peace Of God, In Holy Trust,
In Love And Faith, Thy Presence Dwells
In Patient Suffering And Toil
Where Mercy’s Gentle Tear-Drop Swells.
Sweet Peace! O Let Thy Heavenly Ray
Shed Its Calm Radiance O’er My Road;
Its Kindly Light Shall Cheer Me On
Guide To The Endless Peace Of God.
