1. My heart is resting, O my God, I will give thanks and sing; My heart is at the secret source Of every precious thing. (Chorus:) Oh, peace of God that passeth thought, I daily, hourly sing; My heart is at the secret source Of every precious thing. 2. Now this frail vessel Thou hast made, No hand but Thine shall fill; The waters of the earth have failed, And I am thirsty still. 3. I thirst for springs of heavenly life, And here all day they rise; I seek the treasure of Thy love, And close at hand it lies. (Chorus:) Oh, peace of God that passeth thought, I daily, hourly sing; My heart is at the secret source Of every precious thing. 4. A glad, new song is in my mouth, To long—loved music set, A song of praise for all the grace I have not tasted yet. 5. I have a heritage of joy That yet I must not see; The hand that bled to make it mine Is keeping it for me. (Chorus:) Oh, peace of God that passeth thought, I daily, hourly sing; My heart is at the secret source Of every precious thing. 6. There is a certainty of love That sets my heart at rest; A calm assurance for today That to be poor is best. 7. A prayer reposing on His truth, Who hath made all things mine; That draws my captive will to Him, And makes it one with Thine. (Chorus:) Oh, peace of God that passeth thought, I daily, hourly sing; My heart is at the secret source Of every precious thing.
