GRANT US THY PEACE.

Grant us Thy peace throughout the day, Though well or weary, sad or gay; Speak to the soul, bid turmoil cease— Grant us Thy peace!
Grant us Thy peace throughout the night, When lonely thoughts the soul affright; Touch us anew, bid doubting cease— Grant us Thy peace!
Grant us Thy peace in joy supreme, Turn Thy rare light on life's dear dream; Quiet the soul, bid fever cease— Grant us Thy peace!
Grant us Thy peace in heavy loss; Help us to bravely hold the cross; Strengthen the soul, bid sinking cease— Grant us Thy peace!
Grant us Thy peace in dark suspense, When eyes are blind and clouds are dense; Hold fast the soul, bid striving cease— Grant us Thy peace!
Grant us Thy peace when swiftly dart Temptation's arrows to the heart; Cleanse out the soul, bid weakness cease— Grant us Thy peace!
Grant us Thy peace in death's stern hour, When earthly moorings lose their power; Call to the soul, bid terror cease— Grant us Thy peace!
