Far away in the depths of my spirit tonight
Rolls a melody sweeter than psalm;
In celestial strains it unceasingly falls
Or my soul like an infinite calm
Refrain
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!
Refrain
I am resting tonight in this wonderful peace
Resting sweetly in Jesus control;
For I kept from all danger by night and by day
And His glory is flooding my soul!
Refrain
And I think when I rise to that city of peace
Where the Anchor of peace I shall see
That one strain of the song which the ransomed will sing
In that heavenly kingdom will be:
Refrain
Ah, soul! are you here without comfort and rest
Marching down the rough pathway of time
Make Jesus your Friend ere the shadows grow dark;
O accept of this peace so sublime!
Refrain
