Peace! as the morning breaketh—
Peace! as the hours flow on—
Peace! when the day is brightest—
Peace! when the shadows come.
Peace! as we toil and labor
Throughout life’s busy day—
Peace! as we tread in patience,
Some lonely tearful way.
Peace! as we wait Christ’s coming—
Peace!—till we reach that shore
Where God Himself shall greet us—
Then—Peace for evermore!
