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 blessed 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.
3
Every joy or trial falleth from above,
Traced upon our dial by the Sun of Love;
We may trust Him fully all for us to do.
They who trust Him wholly find Him wholly true.

I like this song.
These words (especially verse 3 and parts of the chorus) are very different from the SDA Hymnal.
Indeed He Promised For Us Perfect Peace And Rest,Amid Many Temptations And Cares He Gives Us His Perfect Peace
