The Perfect Peace of Jesus' Love

When I think of all
You have done for me,
I fall to my knees,
And I praise your name.

It just seems unreal,
That I could have been,
Your bitter enemy,
Such a dangerous game.

But from a death-in-life
I have found release,
Now I've found the truth,
Where there's perfect peace

In Jesus' love, Jesus,
Jesus' love, Jesus,
Jesus' Love, the perfect 
Peace of Jesus' love.

Now there's purpose to
Each and every day,
And there's value to
The words I say.

Now I have refused
my rebellious ways,
And my mind's renewed
For Jesus's sake.

Mere words are so inadequate,
Words to describe
All the wondrousness,
And the boundless depths

Of Jesus' love, Jesus,
Jesus' love, Jesus,
Jesus' love, the perfect
Peace of Jesus' love.
