I
THIS OLD WORLD IS FULL OF PAIN AND MISERY
SOMETIMES SATAN STANDS AND LASHES OUT AT ME
BUT WITH JESUS ON MY SIDE I AM SATISFIED
AND IT'S SO PEACEFUL IN THE ARMS OF MY LORD
CHORUS
IT'S SO PEACEFUL IN THE ARMS OF MY LORD
IN HIS PRESENCE I AM SHELTERED FROM THE STORM
IT'S SO GOOD TO HAVE HIS SPIRIT
IT'S SO GOOD TO HAVE HIS WORD
AND IT'S SO PEACEFUL IN THE ARMS OF MY LORD
II
WHEN I COME TO THE CROSSING OF THE TIDE
WHEN I SEE OLD JORDAN'S WATER DEEP AND WIDE
THAT DARK RIVER I'LL NOT FEAR
FOR MY JESUS HE WILL BE NEAR
AND IT'S SO PEACEFUL IN THE ARMS OF MY LORD
