Lyrics 1 If kneeling at the gate of prayer, My soul has laid its burden there; If sealed with blood and cleansed from sin I hear a voice that speaks within… Refrain: God’s peace I’ll know, God’s peace I’ll know, I’ll praise His name where’er I go; In storm or calm, in bliss or woe, In life or death, in life or death God’s peace, God’s peace I’ll know. 2 If dear to me the sacred page, The lamp of youth, the staff of age, If on the rock I stand secure, My hope unmoved, my anchor sure… [Refrain] 3 If patient faith my heart inspire And kindle there devotion’s fire, If trusting on from day to day I learn to wait, believe, obey… [Refrain] 4 If pure in spirit I behold A wealth whose joy has ne’er been told, If faith and work with me abide, And I thro’ faith am justified… [Refrain]
