Text Based On Ephesians Chapter 5 (KJV)
That he might present it to himself a glorious church,
not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing;
but that it should be holy and without blemish.

Wye Valley (65.65. with refrain.)Verses/Key/v3/F
LIKE A RIVER GLORIOUS
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
Stayed upon Jehovah, hearts are fully blessed
Finding, as He promised, perfect peace and rest.
2.
Hidden in the hollow of His blessèd 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.
Refrain
3.
Every joy or trial falleth from above,
Traced upon our mind by the Son of Love;
We may trust Him fully all for us to do.
They who trust Him wholly find Him wholly true.
Refrain
