102. Perfect Peace

1 Prince of peace, control my will,
Bid the struggling heart be still;
Bid my fears and doubtings cease,
Hush my spirit into peace.

Refrain:
Cleanse my heart from inbred sin,
Bring the Holy Spirit in;
Then will my doubts and fears depart.
And perfect peace reign in my heart.

2 Thou hast bought me with Thy blood,
Opened wide the gate to God;
Peace I ask—but peace must be,
Lord, in being one with Thee. [Refrain]

3 May Thy will, not mine, be done,
May Thy will and mine be one;
Chase these doubtings from my heart,
Now Thy perfect peace impart. [Refrain]

4 Savior! at Thy feet I fall,
Thou my life, my God, my all!
Let Thy happy servant be
One forevermore with Thee! [Refrain]
