Peace Perfect Peace
“I will lie down and sleep in peace, for you alone, O LORD, make me dwell in safety.” Psa 4:8
“10 The LORD sits enthroned over the flood; the LORD is enthroned as King forever. 11The LORD gives strength to his people; the LORD blesses his people with peace.” Psa 29:10-11
Peace, perfect peace—
What a joy to my soul;
Knowing that all in my life
Is under Your Fatherly control.
When trials step through my door
I surrender them to You.
Peace, perfect peace, I forever adore.
Peace, perfect peace
Like a river does roll.
Though the passage rises and falls,
The flow’s under Your parole.
My yoke’s never too heavy;
Whatever the burden,
For it’s carried by You, Lord—
My loving warden.
Peace, perfect peace;
My mind’s rest is assured.
When I continue to reject,
All that Satan has lured.
Knowing what to avoid;
Keeping my heart set on Thee;
Peace, perfect peace;
No bondage for me.
