Let not your heart be faint,
My peace I give to you,—
Such peace as reason never planned,
Nor sinners ever knew.
It tells of joys to come;
It soothes the troubled breast;
It shines, a star amid the storm—
The harbinger of rest.
Then murmur not, nor mourn,
My people faint and few;
Though earth to its foundation shake,
My peace I leave with you.
