74. Like a River Glorious

Verse 1

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.

Chorus 1

Trusting in Jehovah, hearts are fully blessed

Finding, as He promised, perfect peace and rest.

Verse 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.

Chorus 3

Trusting in Jehovah, hearts are fully blessed

Finding, as He promised, perfect peace and rest.

Verse 4

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.

Chorus 5

Trusting in Jehovah, hearts are fully blessed

Finding, as He promised, perfect peace and rest.
