1. Light af-ter darkness, gain af-ter loss; Strength af-ter weakness, crown af-ter cross;

Sweet af-ter bitter, hope after fears, Home after wandering, praise after tears. A-MEN.

2 Peace, perfect peace, by thronging duties pressed:
To do the will of Jesus,-this is rest.

3 Peace, perfect peace, with sorrows surging 'round:
On Jesus' bosom nought but calm is found.

4 Peace, perfect peace, with loved ones far away:
In Jesus' keeping we are safe, and they.

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

6 Peace, perfect peace, death shadowing us and ours:
Jesus has vanquished death and all its powers.

7 It is enough; earth's struggles soon shall cease,
And Jesus call us to heaven's perfect peace.

Thou ever livest, and Thou changest not;
And in the secret of Thy presence dwelleth
Fulness of joy, both now and evermore.
