You can only be blest and have peace and sweet rest, As you yield Him your body and soul. 2 Would you walk with the Lord in the light of His Word, And have peace and contentment alway? You must do His sweet will, to be free from all ill, On the altar your all you must lay.

He shines in all that's fair; In the rustling grass I hear Him pass– He speaks to me ev'rywhere. 3 This is my Father's world– O let me ne'er forget That tho' the wrong seems oft so strong God is the Ruler yet.
