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:)
  Stayed upon Christ Jesus,
  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.
3. Every joy or trial
  Falleth from above,
  Traced upon our dial
  By the Sun of Love.
  We must trust Him fully
  All for us to do;
  They who trust Him wholly
  Find Him wholly true.
(Chorus:)
  Stayed upon Christ Jesus,
  Hearts are fully blest;
  Finding, as He promised,
  Perfect peace and rest.
