Key: A
Verse 1:
      A                       D         A
Far a-way in the depths of my spirit to-night
               B            E
Rolls a melody sweeter than psalm
      A                          D
In ce-lestial-like strains it un-ceasingly falls
        A/E          E7       A
O'er my soul like an infinite calm


Chorus:
A      A/C#  D         A
Peace, peace,wonderful peace
       F#m            B        E
Coming down from the Father a-bove
      A                  D
Sweep over my spirit for-ever, I pray
   A/E        E          A
In fathomless billows of love


Verse 2:
       A                       D         A
What a treasure I have in this wonderful peace
                   B           E
Buried deep in the heart of my soul
      A                      D
So se-cure that no power can mine it away
          A/E        E7      A
While the years of e-ternity roll


Verse 3:
     A                       D         A
I am resting tonight in this wonderful peace
                   B          E
Resting sweetly in Jesus' con-trol
        A                       D
For I'm kept from all danger by night and by day
        A/E      E7          A
And His glory is flooding my soul


Verse 4:
      A                         D       A
And I think when I rise to that city of peace
                    B             E
Where the Author of peace I shall see
         A                            D
That one strain of the song which the ransomed will sing
        A/E      E7            A
In that heavenly kingdom shall be


Verse 5:
    A                         D           A
Ah, soul are you here without comfort and rest
                        B          E
Marching down the rough pathway of time
     A                         D
Make Jesus your friend ere the shadows grow dark
     A/E                E7           A
O ac-cept of this sweet peace so sub-lime
