Key: D
Verse 1:
      D                       G         D
Far a-way in the depths of my spirit to-night
               E            A
Rolls a melody sweeter than psalm
      D                          G
In ce-lestial-like strains it un-ceasingly falls
        D/A          A7       D
O'er my soul like an infinite calm


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


Verse 2:
       D                       G         D
What a treasure I have in this wonderful peace
                   E           A
Buried deep in the heart of my soul
      D                      G
So se-cure that no power can mine it away
          D/A        A7      D
While the years of e-ternity roll


Verse 3:
     D                       G         D
I am resting tonight in this wonderful peace
                   E          A
Resting sweetly in Jesus' con-trol
        D                       G
For I'm kept from all danger by night and by day
        D/A      A7          D
And His glory is flooding my soul


Verse 4:
      D                         G       D
And I think when I rise to that city of peace
                    E             A
Where the Author of peace I shall see
         D                            G
That one strain of the song which the ransomed will sing
        D/A      A7            D
In that heavenly kingdom shall be


Verse 5:
    D                         G           D
Ah, soul are you here without comfort and rest
                        E          A
Marching down the rough pathway of time
     D                         G
Make Jesus your friend ere the shadows grow dark
     D/A                A7           D
O ac-cept of this sweet peace so sub-lime
