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 blest,
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 Every joy or trial
falleth from above,
traced upon the dial
by the Sun of Love;
we may trust him fully
all for us to do;
those who trust him wholly
find him wholly true. [Refrain]
