Key: B
Verse 1:
      B                       E         B
Far a-way in the depths of my spirit to-night
               C#            F#
Rolls a melody sweeter than psalm
      B                          E
In ce-lestial-like strains it un-ceasingly falls
        B/F#          F#7       B
O'er my soul like an infinite calm


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


Verse 2:
       B                       E         B
What a treasure I have in this wonderful peace
                   C#           F#
Buried deep in the heart of my soul
      B                      E
So se-cure that no power can mine it away
          B/F#        F#7      B
While the years of e-ternity roll


Verse 3:
     B                       E         B
I am resting tonight in this wonderful peace
                   C#          F#
Resting sweetly in Jesus' con-trol
        B                       E
For I'm kept from all danger by night and by day
        B/F#      F#7          B
And His glory is flooding my soul


Verse 4:
      B                         E       B
And I think when I rise to that city of peace
                    C#             F#
Where the Author of peace I shall see
         B                            E
That one strain of the song which the ransomed will sing
        B/F#      F#7            B
In that heavenly kingdom shall be


Verse 5:
    B                         E           B
Ah, soul are you here without comfort and rest
                        C#          F#
Marching down the rough pathway of time
     B                         E
Make Jesus your friend ere the shadows grow dark
     B/F#                F#7           B
O ac-cept of this sweet peace so sub-lime
