1.Joys are flowing like a river,Since the Comforter has come;He abides with us forever,Makes the trusting heart his home.Chorus:Blessed quietness, holy quietness, Sweet assurance in my soul;On the stormy sea,Jesus speaks to me,And the billows cease to roll.2.O what holy peace and gladness!What a comfort is our Guest,No more unbelief and sadness,As obeying now we rest. [Chorus]3.Like the rain that falls from heaven,Like the sunlight from the sky,So the Holy Ghost is given,Coming gently from on high. [Chorus]4.Lo! a fruitful field is growing,Blessed fruits of righteousness;And the streams of life are flowingIn the lonely wilderness. [Chorus]5.What a wonderful salvation,Where we always see his face!What a peaceful habitation!What a quiet resting place! [Chorus]
