sweet peace - william d. drake lyrics

Loading...

i sought for peace, but could not find
i sought it in the city
but they were of another mind
the more’s the pity

i sought for peace of country swain
but yet i could not find
so i, returning home again
left peace behind

“sweet peace, where dost thou dwell?” said i
methought a voice was given
“peace dwelt not here, long since did fly
to god in heaven”
thought i, this echo is but vain
to folly ’tis of kin
anon, i thought i heard it plain
“’twas k!ll’d by sin”

then i believed the former voice
and rested well content
laid down and slept, rose, did rejoice
and then to heaven went

“sweet peace, where dost thou dwell?” said i
methought a voice was given
“peace dwelt not here, long since did fly
to god in heaven
to god in heaven
to god in heaven
to god in heaven
to god in heaven”
