We are grateful for the psalmist that declared these words so profoundly as we find them to be so true;
"Joys are flowing like a river,
Since the Comforter has come;
He abides with us forever,
Makes the trusting heart His home.
Blessed quietness, holy quietness,
Blest assurance in my soul!
On the stormy sea, *Jesus speaks to me,
And the billows cease to roll."
