Blessed Quietness




  1.                                                    Joys are flowing like a river,
                                                      Since the Comforter has come;
                                                      He abides with us forever,
                                                      Makes the trusting heart His home.

    •                                                          
    •                                                           Refrain:
                                              Blessed quietness, holy quietness,
                                              Blest assurance in my soul!
                                              On the stormy sea, He speaks peace to me,
                                              And the billows cease to roll.

     

                                                            Everything is turned to gladness,
                                                            All around this glorious Guest;
                                                            Banished unbelief and sadness,
                                                            All is perfect peace and rest.



                                                Like the rain that falls from heaven,
                                                Like the sunlight from the sky,
                                                So the Holy Spirit given,
                                                Falls upon us from on high.





What a wonderful salvation,
Where we always see His face!
What a peaceful habitation!
What a quiet resting place!

“The same Jesus Who turned water into wine can transform your home, your life, your family, and your future. He is still in the miracle-working business, and His business is the business of transformation.”    ~ Adrian Rogers “A man ought to live so that everybody knows he is a Christian… and most of all, his family ought to know.”     ~ D. L. Moody                                                                                                   I just started reading "The God Who is There" by Francis Schaeffer.
