Once I thought I walked with Jesus,

Francis Augustus Blackmer (1855-1930)
5 Verses Perfect Peace
Verse 1
Once I thought I walked with Jesus, Yet such changeful feelings had; Sometimes trusting, sometimes doubting, Sometimes joyful, sometimes sad.
Chorus
Oh, the peace the Savior gives! Peace I never knew before; And my way has brighter grown Since I've learned to trust Him more.
Verse 2
But He call'd me closer to Him, Bade my doubting, fearing, cease; And when I had fully yielded, Filled my soul with perfect peace.
Verse 3
Now I'm trusting every moment, Nothing less can be enough; And the Savior bears me gently O'er those places once so rough.
Verse 4
Day by day my soul He's keeping By His wondrous power within; And my heart is full of singing To my Savior from all sin.
