A      E     A        D        E       A
Like a river glorious Is God’s perfect peace,

A    E       A       E      B7        E
Over all vic-torious In its bright in-crease;

A        E7  A  D    A   Bm7  E7 A     E
Perfect, yet it flow-eth Full-er every day,

A        C#7    F#m  B7  A      E7      A
Perfect, yet it grow-eth Deeper all the way.

A        E7 A  D  A    Bm7    E7  A     E
Trusting in Je-ho-vah, Hearts are fully blest

A        C#7   F#m  B     A       E7        A
Finding, as He prom-ised, Perfect peace and rest.


[[Full Lyrics]]

[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.

[Refrain]
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.

[Verse 3]
Every joy or testing
Comes from God above,
Given to His children
As an act of love;
We may trust Him fully
All for us to do—
Those who trust Him wholly
Find Him wholly true.
