LyicsPRINCE of peace, control my will;
Bid this struggling heart be still;
Bid my fears and doubtings cease;
Hush my spirit into peace.
Thou hast bought me with thy blood,
Opened wide the gate of God:
Peace I ask-but peace must be,
Lord, in being one with thee.
May thy will, not mine, be done;
May thy will and mine be one;
Chase these doubtings from my heart-
Now thy perfect peace impart.
Saviour, at thy feet I fall;
Thou, my Life, my God, my All.
Let thy happy servant be,
One for evermore with thee.
