Peace?

WHEN War grips the world?
When Death haunts the door?
With trials and distress,
Or suffering in store?
Yes, peace — perfect peace,
Unwavering, true,
That flows from the heart
Of Jesus — to you.
Sustaining, complete,
Resistless, divine,
That flows from the heart
Of Jesus — to mine.
A wonderful bond
Uniting to Him,
Though earthly hopes fade,
Though faith flickers dim.
For He is our Peace,
And nothing can part
Communion with God
When Christ rules the heart.

F. WILES.
