AJoys are flowing C7like a Driver,
Since the AComforter has Ecome.
AHe abides with us C7for-Dever,
Makes the Atrusting E7heart His Ahome.
[Chorus]
ABlessed quietness! Holy Dquietness!
What as-Asurance in my Esoul!
AOn the stormy sea Jesus Dspeaks to me,
And the Abillows E7cease to Aroll.
[Verse 2]
ABringing life and C7health and Dgladness,
All a-Around, this heav'n-ly EGuest.
ABanished unbelief C7and Dsadness;
And we jAust o-E7bey and Arest.

ABlessed quietness! Holy Dquietness!
What as-Asurance in my Esoul!
AOn the stormy sea Jesus Dspeaks to me,

ASo the Holy Ghost C7is gDiven,
Coming Aon us E7from on Ahigh.

AOn the stormy sea Jesus Dspeaks to me,
And the Abillows E7cease to Aroll.

ASee, a fruitful C7field is Dgrowing,
Blessed Afruit of righ-teous-Eness;
AAnd the streams of life C7are Dflowing,
In the Alonely E7wilder-Aness.

What as-Asurance in my Esoul!
AOn the stormy sea Jesus Dspeaks to me,
And the Abillows E7cease to Aroll.
[Verse 5]
AWhat a wonder-C7ful sal-Dvation,
Where we Aalways see His Eface!
AWhat a peaceful hab -C7i- Dtation!
What a Aquiet E7resting Aplace!
