Joys Are Flowing Like a River

[Verse 1] Joys are flowing like a river, Since the Comforter has come; He abides with us for ever, Makes the trusting heart His home. [Chorus] Blessed quietness, holy quietness, What assurance in my soul! On the stormy sea, He speaks peace to me How the billows cease to roll. [Verse 2] Bringing life, and health and gladness, All around this heav'nly Guest, Banished unbelief and sadness, Changed our weariness to rest. [Chorus] Blessed quietness, holy quietness, What assurance in my soul! On the stormy sea, He speaks peace to me How the billows cease to roll. [Verse 3] Like the rain that falls from heaven, Like the sunlight from the sky, So the Holy Ghost is given, Coming on us from on high. [Chorus] Blessed quietness, holy quietness, What assurance in my soul! On the stormy sea, He speaks peace to me How the billows cease to roll. [Verse 4] See, a fruitful field is growing, Blessed fruit of righteousness; And the streams of life are flowing In the lonely wilderness. [Chorus] Blessed quietness, holy quietness, What assurance in my soul! On the stormy sea, He speaks peace to me How the billows cease to roll. [Verse 5] What a wonderful salvation, Where we always see His face! What a perfect habitation, What a quiet resting place! [Chorus] Blessed quietness, holy quietness, What assurance in my soul! On the stormy sea, He speaks peace to me How the billows cease to roll.
