Perfect Peace

O Lord, how happy we could be,

If we would put full trust in Thee -

If we from foolish fears would rest

And be assured that Thou above,

In perfect wisdom, grace, and love,

Art working for our best.

Lord, make these faithless hearts of ours

Good lessons learn from fields of flowers;

First, let our worries cease;

Then, like the flowers, let us be still

And leave all things to Thy good will

And so find perfect peace.
