Sweet Peace, the Gift of God’s Love

1. 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.

2. Thru 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.

3. 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.

4. 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.
