All's Well!

Topics: classic

Is the pathway dark and dreary?     God's in His heaven!     Are you broken, heart-sick, weary?     God's in His heaven!     Dreariest roads shall have an ending,     Broken hearts are for God's mending.             All's well! All's well!                 All's ... well!     Are life's threads all sorely tangled?     God's in His heaven!     Are the sweet chords strained and jangled?     God's in His heaven!     Tangled threads are for Love's fingers,     Trembling chords make heaven's sweet singers.             All's well! All's well!                 All's ... well!     Is the burden past your bearing?     God's in His heaven!     Hopeless?--Friendless?--No one caring?     God's in His heaven!     Burdens shared are light to carry,     Love shall come though long He tarry.             All's well! All's well!                 All's ... well!     Is the light for ever failing?     God's in His heaven!     Is the faint heart ever quailing?     God's in His heaven!     God's strong arms are all around you,     In the dark He sought and found you.             All's well! All's well!                 All's ... well!     Is the future black with sorrow?     God's in His heaven!     Do you dread each dark to-morrow?     God's in His heaven!     Nought can come without His knowing.     Come what may 'tis His bestowing.             All's well! All's well!                 All's ... well!     Peace and heaven lie all about us.     God's in His heaven!     Peace within makes heaven without us.     God's in His heaven!     God's great love shall fail us never,     We are His, and His for ever.             All's well! All's well!                 All's ... well!
