Author: Mrs. C. H. M. Hymnal: Songs of Praise and Salvation #61 (1902) First Line: Like oil upon the troubled sea Lyrics: 1 Like oil upon the troubled sea,
To lull its waves to rest,
So came the peace of God to me,
His comfort to my breast.
Refrain:
I have peace, sweet peace,
I have peace, sweet peace,
Since Jesus my life doth control.
A holy calm, abiding peace,
Sweet peace, down deep in my soul.
2 A peace that knows no ebb and flow,
But deep, unbroken calm;
Since Christ, the Prince of Peace I know,
And his alone I am. [Refrain]
3 How precious is this wondrous peace,
Which as a river flows,
When tempests beat and storms increase,
My peace still deeper grows. [Refrain]
4 Then, if my way be rough and steep,
I’ll trust, nor be afraid;
For God will keep in perfect peace
Whose heart on him is stayed. [Refrain] Tune Title: [Like oil upon the troubled sea]
I Have Peace, Sweet Peace
