200. Peace to soothe our bitter woes

1 Peace to soothe our bitter woes
God in Christ on us bestows;
Jesus bought our peace with God
With his holy, precious Blood;
Peace in him for sinners found
Is the Gospel's joyful sound.

2 Peace to us the Church doth tell,
'Tis her welcome and farewell;
Peace was our baptismal dower,
Peace shall bless our dying hour;
Peace be with you, full and free,
Now and through eternity.
