Sweet peace of conscience, heavenly guest!
Come, fix thy mansion in my breast;
Dispel my doubts, my fears control,
And heal the anguish of my soul.
Come, smiling hope, and joy sincere,
Come, make your constant dwelling here;
Still let your presence cheer my heart,
Nor sin compel you to depart.
Thou God of hope, and peace divine
O, make these sacred pleasures mine!
Forgive my sins, my fears remove,
And send the tokens of thy love.
Then, should mine eyes, without a tear.
See death with all its terrors near
My heart should then in death rejoice,
And raptures tune my faltering voice.
---Alternative verses---
O God of hope, and peace divine
Make thou these secret pleasures mine!
Forgive my sins, my fears remove,
And fill my heart with joy and love.
