Prince of Peace Control My Will
Verse 1
Prince of Peace, control my will,
Bid this struggling heart be still;
Bid my fears and doubtings cease,
Hush my spirit into peace.
Bid this struggling heart be still;
Bid my fears and doubtings cease,
Hush my spirit into peace.
Verse 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.
Opened wide the gate to God;
Peace, I ask, but peace must be,
Lord, in being one with Thee.
Verse 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.
May Thy will and mine be one;
Chase these doubtings from my heart,
Now Thy perfect peace impart.
