Sweet is the Peace the Gospel Brings is a beautiful Christian hymn that teaches of the peace, purity, and sweetness that comes by receiving and living the gospel. Your digital download purchase includes the full score, as well as the violin part.

This arrangement was commissioned by the BYU Men's Chorus, Rosalind Hall director, for inclusion in their album, Set Apart: Beloved Missionary Hymns. Three others of my hymn arrangements are included in the Set Apart album: Brightly Beams Our Father's Mercy, Onward, Christian Soldiers, and It Is Well with My Soul.

Lyrics
Sweet is the peace the gospel brings To seeking minds and true. With light refulgent on it's wings, It clears the human view. It's laws and precepts are divine And show a Father's care. Transcendent love and ercy shine In each injunction there. Faithless tradition flees its pow'r And unbelief gives way. The gloomy clouds, which used to low'r, Submit to reason's sway. That which in part we have received Will be in part no more, For He in whom we all believe To us will all restore. May we who know the sacred Name From ev'ry sin depart. Then will the Spirit's constant flame Preserve us pure in heart.
