God’s Peace I’ll Know

If kneel­ing at the gate of pray­er

My soul has laid its bur­den there;

If sealed with blood and cleansed from sin

I hear a voice that speaks with­in…

God’s peace I’ll know

God’s peace I’ll know

I’ll praise His name wher­e’er I go;

In storm or calm

in bliss or woe

In life or death

in life or death

God’s peace

God’s peace I’ll know.

If dear to me the sac­red page

The lamp of youth

the staff of age

If on the rock I stand se­cure

My hope un­moved

my an­chor sure…

If pa­tient faith my heart in­spire

And kin­dle there de­vo­tion’s fire

If trust­ing on from day to day

I learn to wait

be­lieve

ob­ey…

If pure in spir­it I be­hold

A wealth whose joy has ne’er been told

If faith and work with me ab­ide

And I thro’ faith am jus­ti­fied…
