“Like a river, glorious Is God's perfect peace”

F. R. Havergal
  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.
  1. 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.
  1. Ev'ry 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.
