Wonderful Peace Coming Down From The Father Above
Wonderful Peace Coming Down From The Father Above
Wonderful Peace
Far away in the depths of my spirit tonight
Rolls a melody sweeter than psalm
In celestial-like strains, it unceasingly falls
O’re my soul like an infinite calm
Refrain:
Peace, peace, wonderful′ peace
Coming down from the Father above
Sweep over my spirit forever, I pray
In fathomless billows of love
What a treasure I have in this ′wonderful peace
Buried deep in the heart of my soul
So secure that no power can mine it away
While the years of eternity roll
Refrain:
′Peace, peace′, wonderful peace′
Coming down from the Father above
Sweep over my spirit forever, I pray
In fathomless billows of love
I am resting tonight in this wonderful′ peace
Resting sweetly in Jesus’ control
For I’m kept from all danger by night and by day
And His glory is flooding my soul
Refrain:
Peace, peaceˆ, ′wonderful peace
Coming down from the Father above
Sweep over my spirit forever, I pray
In fathomless billows of love
And me-thinks when I rise to that City of peace
Where the Author of Peace I shall see
That one strain of the song which the ransomed will sing
In that heavenly kingdom will be
Refrain:
Peace, peace′, ′wonderful peace
Coming down from the Father above
Sweep over my spirit forever, I pray
In fathomless billows of love
Ah, soul, are you here without comfort or rest
Marching down the rough pathway of time?
Make Jesus your friend ere the shadows grow dark
Oh, accept this sweet peace so sublime
