The Pool of Priceless Peace

In the pool of eternal peace I lost my tears,
the flood of faith sweeps away my fears.
Each morning bloom shows forth your grace
as the rising Sun flushes my heart and face

You are good when all about me seems so bad,
my graceful balm when I am slow and sad;
Your love keeps me through the darkest nights
and your light makes each day so bright.

In your Word my hope blossoms anew-
steadfast to revive, redeem and renew.
In your arms I am fortified and free,
safe and sound in you I will ever be.

Bowing in awe, Lord I worship and adore,
in appreciation, my soul craves for more:
more of you peace when sorrow betides,
more of you my Savior, Friends  and guide!
