Sacred Songs and Solos Lyrics
Hymn No.658
First Line: Far away in the depths of my spirit to-night,
Far away in the depths of my spirit to-night
Rolls a melody sweeter than psalm ;
In celestial-like strains it unceasingly falls
O'er my soul like an infinite calm.
Peace ! peace ! wonderful peace!
Coming down from the Father above,
Sweep over my spirit for ever, I pray,
In fathomless billows of love.
2 What a treasure I have in this wonderful peace
Which abides in the depths of my soul
So secure that no power can e'er take it away
While the years of eternity roll.
3 I am resting to-night in this wonderful peace,
I have yielded to Jesus' control ;
For I'm kept from all danger by night and by day,
And His glory is filling my soul.
4 And methinks when I rise to that city of peace,
Where its Author with joy I shall see,
That one of the songs which the ransomed will sing
In that heavenly kingdom shall be:
