105. My Peace Is Like a River

1 As a golden sun that’s setting
In the crimson flooded west,
As the quiet calm of evening sets a weary world at rest,
So the love of God has flooded my heart with a tranquil calm,
And my soul is filled with music
Like the strains of an evening psalm.

Chorus:
My peace is like a river
With a current deep and strong
That rolls along forever
The hills and plains among.
My peace is like a river
That deepens toward the sea
And rolls along forevermore
Like God’s eternity!
It rolls along forevermore
Like God’s eternity.

2 As the calm and placid waters
Of a river deep and wide,
Ever run their course until at last they reach the ocean’s tide,
So the peace of God is flowing from His throne into my soul;
And, tho’ storms may beat around me,
I am sheltered in His control. [Chorus]
