When peace like a river

Whatever my lot in life?
Whatever my pain?
This I know dear Lord
This truth I can explain
When pain washes over me?
When ear I cannot explain
Attempts to conquer me
Attempts to derail
That's when I call out His name
That's when it is always the same
The peace like a river
Begins to flow
Right through my veins
Yes, His peace like a river
Completely drenches the pain
My Lord I love Thee
"My Lord!" I exclaim
It is only when you're with me 
That I can finally gain
This peace; like a river
Coursing through my veins...
