Hymns using same tune:

#104, #349

 

 1  A mind at perfect peace with God;

       O what a word is this!

    A sinner reconciled through blood;

       This, this indeed is peace.

 

 2  By nature and by practice far,

       How very far from God,

    Yet now by grace brought nigh to Him,

       Through faith in Jesus' blood.

 

 3  So nigh, so very nigh to God,

       I cannot nearer be;

    For in the person of His Son

       I am as near as He.

 

 4  So dear, so very dear to God,

       More dear I cannot be;

    The love wherewith He loves the Son,

       Such is His love to me.

 

 5  Why should I ever anxious be,

       Since such a God is mine?

    He watches o'er me night and day,

       And tells me "Mine is thine."
