“This man shall be the peace.” Mic. 5. 5; Eph. 2. 14

1 Peace by his cross has Jesus made;
  The church’s everlasting Head
  O’er hell and sin has victory won,

2 When o’er thy head the billows roll,
  And shades of sin obscure thy soul;
  When thou canst no deliverance see,
  Yet still this Man thy Peace shall be.

3 In tribulation’s thorny maze,
  Or on the mount of sovereign grace,
  Or in the fire, or through the sea,
  This glorious Man thy Peace shall be.

4 Yea, when thy eye of faith is dim,
  Rest thou on Jesus, sink or swim,
  And at his footstool bow the knee,
  For Israel’s God thy Peace shall be.
