How Precious!

How Precious!

How Precious is the peace of God,
That flooded through my soul.
That day I prayed, on bended knee,
When Jesus made me whole.

How precious is the love of Christ
That bore my sin and shame;
When for my sinful soul he died
O, praise His matchless name!

How precious is the joy of God
That gives me strength always.
Today, O Lord, I will rejoice
Live in me, Lord, I pray.

How precious is the grace of God,
He gives grace ev’ryday.
Yes, grace to sow and grace to share
To listen and obey.

How precious is God’s perfect time
Though we may think it wrong.
How precious is His guiding hand
That helps to keep us strong!

How precious is the hope of God
The hope of life to come.
God gives to all who trust in Him
A bright eternal home!

How precious is God’s mercy that
On Calv’ry was outpoured.
Christ overcame all guilt and wrong
How precious is our Lord!

From 1 Peter 2: 7
