1 Like a river glorious
is God’s perfect peace,
over all victorious
in its bright increase;
perfect, yet it floweth
fuller ev’ry day,
perfect, yet it groweth
deeper all the way.
Refrain:
Trusting in 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 Ev’ry joy or trial
come from God above,
Given to His children
as an act of love.
We may trust him fully
all for us to do;
those who trust him wholly
find him wholly true. [Refrain]
