| 1. I hear the words of love, I gaze upon the blood, I see the mighty Sacrifice, And I have peace with God.
2. ‘Tis everlasting peace! Sure as Jehovah’s name; ‘Tis stable as His steadfast throne, For evermore the same.
3. The clouds may go and come, And storms may sweep my sky— This blood-sealed friendship changes not: The cross is ever nigh.
4. My love is oft times low, My joy still ebbs and flows; But peace with Him remains the same— No change Jehovah knows.
5. I change, he changes not, The Christ can never die; His love, not mine, the resting-place, His truth, not mine, the tie.
6. The Cross still stands unchanged, Though heaven is now His home; The mighty stone is rolled away, But yonder is His tomb!
7. And yonder is my peace, The grace of all my woes! I know the Son of God has come, I know He died and rose.
8. I know He liveth now At God’s right hand above; I know the throne on which He sits, I know His truth and love!
