Peace
Author: Gaskell Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 2 hymnals First Line: How long, O Lord, his brother's blood Lyrics:
How long, O Lord, his brother’s blood
Shall man in battle spill?
How long that mandate be withstood,
Which cries, “Thou shalt not kill?”
How long shall glory still be found
In scenes of cruel strife,
Where misery walks, a giant crowned,
Crushing the flowers of life?
O, hush, great God! the sounds of war,
And make Thy children feel
That he, with Thee, is noblest far,
Who toils for human weal;—
And though forgotten, he alone
Can be a Christian true
Who would his foes as brethren own,
And still their good pursue.

Author: Anna H. Proctor Appears in 3 hymnals First Line: Peace, blessed peace, when night winds wild are raging Refrain First Line: Peace, wondrous peace Lyrics: 1 Peace, blessed peace, when night winds wild are raging,
Peace, blessed peace, when foes our path assail;
Peace in the tempest, when the battle waging,
Wrapped safe in love we rest within the vail.
Refrain:
Peace, wondrous peace, the priceless boon of heaven,
Calmly to rest, until the conflicts cease;
Father above, to us may now be given,
This blessed gift of Thine eternal peace.
2 Peace, perfect, peace, when oft the heart is weary,
Peace, calm and still, when all the hosts of sin
Strive to allure, and life seems dark and dreary,
Shut in with God the vict’ry we shall win. [Refrain]
3 Peace, holy peace, from which naught e’er can sever,
In His pavilion safely we may dwell;
Peace, calm, serene, no earthly power ever
Can woo thee from thy Lord, for all is well. [Refrain] Used With Tune: [Peace, blessed peace, when night winds wild are raging]

Author: Charles Wesley Appears in 103 hymnals First Line: Thou very present Aid Lyrics: 1 Thou very present Aid
In suffering and distress,
The mind which still on thee is stayed,
Is kept in perfect peace.
2 The soul by faith reclined
On the Redeemer's breast,
'Mid raging storms, exults to find
As everlasting rest.
3 Sorrow and fear are gone,
Whene'er thy face appears;
It stills the sighing orphan's moan,
And dries the widow's tears.
4 Jesus, to whom I fly,
Doth all my wishes fill;
What though created streams are dry?
I have the fountain still.
5 Stripped of each earthly friend,
I find them all in One,
And peace and joy which never end,
And heaven, in Christ, alone. Topics: Privileges of Believers; Christians Privileges; God Omnipresence; Orphans; Peace Christian; Christians Privileges; God Omnipresence; Orphans; Peace Christian Used With Tune: THATCHER

Author: Burton H. Winslow Appears in 2 hymnals First Line: Sweetest word of Jesus Refrain First Line: Word of words the sweetest Lyrics: 1 Sweetest word of Jesus,
To the troubled heart,
Soothing care and sorrow,
Making fear depart;
Like a benediction,
Bidding turmoil cease,
Comes the Saviour’s blessed word,
“Peace, I give you peace.”
Refrain:
Word of words the sweetest,
‘Twas the angels’ strain,
When the heavn’ly chorus
Sang o’er Bethlehem’s plain.
Peace on earth from heaven,
May it e’er increase,
Till all hearts shall own its sway,
Peace, most blessed peace.
2 On the cross of Calv’ry,
Peace for us was made;
For a world’s redemption,
Great the price He paid.
Now from Satan’s bondage,
Giving glad release,
Comes the Saviour’s blessed word,
“Peace, I give you peace.” [Refrain]
3 Hear the blessed message,
Do not slight His call,—
While the Saviour offers
Pardon free to all.
Speed the good news ever,
Let it never cease,
Till all hearts shall hear the word,
“Peace, I give you peace.” [Refrain] Topics: Peace Used With Tune: PEACE
