172. 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.

Refrain:
Blessed quietness, holy quietness;
what assurance in my soul;
On the stormy sea He speaks to me;
How the billows cease to roll!

2 Bringing life and health and gladness
All around, this heav'nly Guest,
Banished unbelief and sadness,
Chang'd our weariness to rest. [Refrain]

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. [Refrain]

4 See, a fruitful field is growing,
Blessed fruit of righteousness;
And the streams of life are flowing
In the lonely wilderness. [Refrain]

5 What a wonderful salvation,
Where we always see His face!
What a perfect habitation,
What a quiet resting place! [Refrain]
