PEACE, TROUBLED SOUL—SONG

Peace, troubled Soul, peace troubled Soul,
Over life's sea the angry tempests gather,
Roll billows roll, roll billows roll,
Vain be thy strife, unnoticed thine endeavor;
Calm on the bosom of thy God,
Rest, sweetly rest, to silence awed,
Rest thou in peace with Heaven,
Earth hath no refuge given,
Torn, tossed and tempest driven,
     Rest thou in God.
