H.Bonar
I HEAR the words of love,
I gaze upon the blood,
I see the mighty sacrifice
And I have peace with God.
2
’Tis everlasting peace!
Sure as Jehovah’s Name;
’Tis stable as His steadfast throne,
Forevermore the same.
3
The clouds may come and go,
And storms may sweep my sky
This blood-sealed friendship changes not:
The cross is ever nigh.
4
My love is oft-times low,
My joy still ebbs and flows;
But peace with Him remains the same
No change Jehovah knows.
5
I change, He changes not,
The Christ can never die;
His love, not mine, the resting place,
His truth, not mine the tie.
