Securing Peace
To abide in God’s securing peace* is my utmost desire
Never impossible along my Saviour’s invitation-pleasure
He bids me to come freely by the faith He does require
Granting my soul sweet respite in His tranquility’s enclosure.
Blessed wondrously to be assured by His calmness-safety
Enabled am I to linger longer in communion partnership
Plunged in His love that subdues every trace of anxiety
My heart thanks the Lord for His gracious friendship.
*Psalm 4:8 I will both lay me down in peace, and sleep: for thou, LORD, only makest me dwell in safety.
