There Comes to My Heart

There comes to my heart one sweet strain, A glad and a joyous refrain; I sing it again and again, Sweet peace, the gift of God's love.

Through Christ on the cross peace was made, My debt by His death was all paid; No other foundation is laid For peace, the gift of God's love.

When Jesus as Lord I had crowned, My heart with this peace did abound; In Him the rich blessing I found, Sweet peace, the gift of God's love.

In Jesus for peace I abide, And as I keep close to His side, There's nothing but peace doth betide. Sweet peace, the gift of God's love.
