Like a river, glorious

Like a river

glorious

Is God’s perfect peace

Over all victorious

In its bright increase;

Perfect

yet it floweth

Fuller every day

Perfect

yet it groweth

Deeper all the way.

Stayed upon Christ Jesus

Hearts are fully blest;

Finding

as He promised

Perfect peace and rest.

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.

Every 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.
