Sheet music
- 1Like a river gloriousIs God's perfect peace,Over all victoriousIn its bright increase;Perfect, yet it flowethFuller ev’ry day;Perfect, yet it growethDeeper all the way.Stayed upon Jehovah,Hearts are fully blessed;Finding, as He promised,Perfect peace and rest.
- 2Hidden in the hollowOf His blessed hand,Never foe can follow,Never traitor stand;Not a surge of worry,Not a shade of care,Not a blast of hurryTouch the spirit there.Stayed upon Jehovah,Hearts are fully blessed;Finding, as He promised,Perfect peace and rest.
- 3Every joy or trialFalleth from above,Traced upon our dialBy the Sun of Love;We may trust Him fullyAll for us to do;They who trust Him whollyFind Him wholly true.Stayed upon Jehovah,Hearts are fully blessed;Finding, as He promised,Perfect peace and rest.
