His Fullness Songs ‎#443

443. Like a River Glorious

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:
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 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. [Refrain]
