I’ll Never Forget It

It was a time of sweet­est peace

When Je­sus came to my re­lease;

Saved me from sin and dark des­pair

And wrote my name on pag­es fair.

I’ll nev­er for­get it while ag­es roll;

I’ll nev­er for­get it

sweet peace in my soul;

When Je­sus my Sav­ior in quick­en­ing pow­er;

Brought life and sal­va­tion

and saved me that hour.

Though light­nings flash and thun­ders roll

This peace ab­ides with­in my soul;

And though the world re­jects me still

His per­fect love my heart doth fill.

Though clouds may dark and hea­vy be

But still by faith my Lord I see;

Through sor­rows deep or swell­ing flood

I rest se­cure be­neath the blood.

Then let me lean on Je­sus’ breast

Amid the tem­pest let me rest;

While cling­ing to His pre­cious arm

He’ll shield my soul from ev­ery harm.
