1. Prince of peace, control my will, Bid the struggling heart be still; Bid my fears and doubtings cease, Hush my spirit into peace.
2. Thou hast bought me with Thy blood, Opened wide the gate to God; Peace I ask— but peace must be, Lord, in being one with Thee.
3. May Thy will, not mine, be done, May Thy will and mine be one; Chase these doubtings from my heart, Now Thy perfect peace impart.
4. Savior, at Thy feet I fall, Thou my life, my God, my all! Let Thy happy servant be One forevermore with Thee!
