244. The Peace of God

1 There is a peace, a lasting peace,
Which God alone can give;
It brings from guilt a blest release,
And makes it sweet to live.

Refrain:
O blessed peace, from God above,
How precious to my soul;
All praise Him for His peace and love,
While endless ages roll.

2 It glows within the trusting heart,
Tho’ earthly days be drear;
It makes us brave to do our part,
It fills the soul with cheer. [Refrain]

3 Oh, let us speak to those in sin,
Of this dear peace so sweet,
That we their precious souls may win,
And lead to Jesus’ feet. [Refrain]
