Peace, perfect peace, in this dark world of sin? The blood of Jesus whispers peace within. |

Peace, perfect peace, by thronging duties pressed? To do the will of Jesus—this is rest. |

Peace, perfect peace, with sorrows surging round? On Jesus’ bosom naught but calm is found. |

Peace, perfect peace, with loved ones far away? In Jesus’ keeping we are safe, and they. |

Peace, perfect peace, our future all unknown? Jesus we know, and He is on the throne. |

I heard this lovely hymn for the first time in church this morning. I found it moving and reassuring.
'Peace I leave with you; not as the world gives give I unto you. (John 14 v. 27)

My mother passed away quietly very early yesterday. Even though this hymn brought hot tears to my face today, I searched for it, and the tears have done me well. We will sing this throughout the funeral celebrations! Eighty-seven years entirely invested in doing good. Halleluyah to my unfailing Jesus!!! Peace is here in my heart!!!

This is indeed a marvelous song. Praise be to God for His everlasting peace in this dark world of sin where no hope lies but heartache and distress. Amina.
