89. Blessed Quietness

1 Joys are flowing like a river,
Since the Comforter has come;
He abides with us forever
Makes the trusting heart His home.

Chorus:
Blessed quietness, holy quietness,
What assurance in my soul;
On the stormy sea, Jesus speaks to me,
And the billows cease to roll.

2 Springing into joy and gladness
All around this glorious Guest,
Banished unbelief and sadness,
And we just obey and rest. [Chorus]

3 Like the rain that falls from heaven,
Like the sunlight from the sky,
So the Holy Ghost is given,
Coming to us from on high. [Chorus]

4 What a wonderful salvation,
Where we always see His face;
What a peaceful habitation,
What a quiet resting place. [Chorus]
