I have seen a rest profound, a tranquil constant peace
Each time I hear that inner voice and all my strivings cease
A secret learned through lessons taught by difficulties real
To lean not on the strength my own and trust not how I feel
Each time He led me through a trial experience did gain
To count all joy the hardship and embrace with faith the pain
And hope became that anchor strong to hold my reeling soul
And know beyond a shadow’s doubt my Lord was in control
The treasure gained from buffeting new freedom from all care
Assured the same good providence would every time be there
And from sure hope a grateful calm serenity was found
As He became my confidence my own mind became sound
