Glorious Peace (#149) | Daniel O. Teasley, 1911
I came defiled and guilty
To Jesus the mighty to save;
He took my sins and sorrows,
And beauty for ashes gave.
Refrain:
Peace, peace, glorious peace,
Like tranquil waters flow;
Streaming down over my heart,
Made white as the driven snow.
I came to Jesus repenting,
Confessing my every sin,
My heart’s door swung wide open,
And glorious peace flowed in.
And since that joyful moment
Of glorious peace to me,
My soul has ceased its pining,
My heart has been light and free.
Roll on, ye changing seasons,
Or turbulent seas of sin;
I’ve found a blessed shelter,
And glorious peace within.
