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,
Open'd 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.
