257. There's Perfect Love That Casts out Fear

1 There's perfect love that casts out fear,
Gives fortitude, repose;
A love that loves th'unlovable,
It even loves the foes.

2 There is a joy that thrills the soul,
And overflows its cup;
That quiet joy the Spirit gives,
And lifts our spirits up.

3 There is a peace, a perfect peace,
In this dark world of sin;
It does not come from outward rest,
But springs up from within.

4 There is a rest, a perfect rest,
Reserved for us in heav'n;
And all who bear the yoke with Christ,
To them this rest is giv'n.
