Deep peace of God’s running wave to you,
Deep peace of God’s coursing surf to you,
Deep peace of God’s splashing swells to you.
Deep peace of God’s living stream to you!
Deep peace of God’s running wave to you,
Deep peace of God’s flowing air to you,
Deep peace of God’s quiet earth to you,
Deep peace of God’s shining stars to you!

Deep peace of God’s flowing air to you,
Deep peace of God’s gentle wind to you,
Deep peace of God’s cooling breeze to you
Deep peace of God’s still, small voice, to you!
Deep peace of God’s running wave to you,
Deep peace of God’s flowing air to you,
Deep peace of God’s quiet earth to you,
Deep peace of God’s shining stars to you!


Deep peace of God’s quiet earth to you,
Deep peace of God’s growing fields to you,
Deep peace of God’s silent woods to you.
Deep peace of God’s tranquil hills to you!
Deep peace of God’s running wave to you,
Deep peace of God’s flowing air to you,
Deep peace of God’s quiet earth to you,
Deep peace of God’s shining stars to you!


Deep peace of God’s shining stars to you,
Deep peace of God’s glowing sun to you,
Deep peace of God’s beaming moon to you,
Deep peace of God’s light of light, to you!
Deep peace of God’s running wave to you,
Deep peace of God’s flowing air to you,
Deep peace of God’s quiet earth to you,
Deep peace of God’s Prince of peace to you!
