Text: | Like a River Glorious |
Author: | Frances R. Havergal |
Tune: | WYE VALLEY |
Composer: | James Mountain |
1 Like a river glorious is God’s perfect peace,
over all victorious in its bright increase;
perfect, yet it floweth fuller every day;
perfect, yet it groweth deeper all the way.
Refrain:
Stayed upon Jehovah, hearts are fully blessed;
finding, as He promised, perfect peace and rest.
2 Hidden in the hollow of His blessed hand,
never foe can follow, never traitor stand;
not a surge of worry, not a shade of care,
not a blast of hurry touch the spirit there. [Refrain]
3 When a joy or trial falleth from above,
traced upon our dial by the Sun of Love,
we may trust Him fully all for us to do;
they who trust Him wholly find Him wholly true. [Refrain]
