DIVINE PEACE.

By Horatius Bonar, D. D.

PEACE upon peace, like wave upon wave, This the portion that I crave; The peace of God which passeth thought, The peace of Christ which changeth not.
Peace like the river's gentle flow, Peace like the morning's silent glow, From day to day in love supplied, An endless and unebbing tide.
Peace flowing on, without decrease, From Him who is our joy and peace, Who, by his reconciling blood, Hath made the sinner's peace with God.
Peace through the night and through the day, Peace though all windings of our way, In pain and toil and weariness, A deep and everlasting peace.
O King of peace, this peace bestow Upon a stranger here below; O God of peace, thy peace impart To every troubled, trembling heart.
Peace from the Father and the Son, Peace from the Spirit, all his own; Peace that shall nevermore be lost, Of Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. —Horatius Bonar, D. D.
