Wonderful Peace
      (William G. Cooper)

Far away in the depths of my spirit tonight
Rolls a melody sweeter than psalm
In celestial-like strains it unceasingly falls
O’er my soul like an infinite calm

Chorus:
Peace, peace, wonderful peace
Coming down from the Father above
Sweep over my spirit forever, I pray
In fathomless billows of love

What a treasure I have in
      This wonderful peace
Buried deep in the heart of my soul
So secure that no power can mine it away
While the years of eternity roll

I am resting tonight in
      This wonderful peace
Resting sweetly in Jesus’ control
For I’m kept from all danger
      By night and by day,
And His glory is flooding my soul!

And I think when I rise to
      hat city of peace,
Where the Author of peace I shall see,
That one strain of the song which
      The ransomed will sing
In that heavenly kingdom will be

Ah soul, are you here with-
      -out comfort and rest,
Marching down the
      Rough pathway of time?
Make Jesus your friend ere
      The shadows grow dark;
Oh, accept this sweet peace so sublime!
