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.
Chorus:
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. [Chorus]
3 Ev'ry joy or trial
Falleth from above,
Trac'd upon our dial
By the Son of Love,
We may trust Him fully
All for us to do;
They who trust Him wholly
Find Him wholly true. [Chorus]
