Verse_Lyric: 1
1. Peace be to this congregation!

Peace to ev’ry heart therein!

Peace, the earnest of salvation;

peace, the fruit of conquer’d sin;

peace that speaks the heav’nly Giver;

peace, to worldly minds unknown;

peace that floweth as a river

from th’eternal Source alone.

Verse_Lyric: 2
2. O Thou God of peace, be near us!

Build within our hearts Thy home.

With Thy bright appearing cheer us,

let Thy blessed kingdom come!

Come with all Thy revelation:

truth which we so long have sought!

Come with deepest consolation,

peace of God which passeth thought!
