[Verse 1]
A C7 D Joys are flowing like a river, A E Since the Comforter has come. A C7 D He abides with us for-ever, A E7 A Makes the trusting heart His home.
[Chorus]
A D Blessed quietness! Holy quietness! A E What as-surance in my soul! A D On the stormy sea Jesus speaks to me, A E7 A And the billows cease to roll.
[Verse 2]
A C7 D Bringing life and health and gladness, A E All a-round, this heav'n-ly Guest. A C7 D Banished unbelief and sadness; A E7 A And we just o-bey and rest.
[Chorus]
A D Blessed quietness! Holy quietness! A E What as-surance in my soul! A D On the stormy sea Jesus speaks to me, A E7 A And the billows cease to roll.
[Verse 3]
A C7 D Like the rain that falls from heaven, A E Like the sunlight from the sky, A C7 D So the Holy Ghost is given, A E7 A Coming on us from on high.
[Chorus]
A D Blessed quietness! Holy quietness! A E What as-surance in my soul! A D On the stormy sea Jesus speaks to me, A E7 A And the billows cease to roll.
[Verse 4]
A C7 D See, a fruitful field is growing, A E Blessed fruit of righ-teous-ness; A C7 D And the streams of life are flowing, A E7 A In the lonely wilder-ness.
[Chorus]
A D Blessed quietness! Holy quietness! A E What as-surance in my soul! A D On the stormy sea Jesus speaks to me, A E7 A And the billows cease to roll.
[Verse 5]
A C7 D What a wonder-ful sal-vation, A E Where we always see His face! A C7 D What a peaceful hab -i- tation! A E7 A What a quiet resting place!
[Chorus]
A D Blessed quietness! Holy quietness! A E What as-surance in my soul! A D On the stormy sea Jesus speaks to me, A E7 A And the billows cease to roll.
