8924. We Bless Thee For Thy Peace

1 We bless Thee for Thy peace, O God,
Deep as the unfathomed sea,
Which falls like sunshine on the road
Of those who trust in Thee.

2 We ask not, Father, for repose
Which comes from an outward rest,
If we may have through all life’s woes
Thy peace within our breast.

3 That peace which flows serene and deep,
Like a river in the soul,
Whose banks a living verdure keep,
God’s sunshine o’er the whole.

4 O Father, give our hearts this peace,
Whatever the outward be,
Till all life’s discipline shall cease,
And we go home to Thee.

Amen.
