It All Will Come Out Right

Topics: classic

Whatever is a cruel wrong,          Whatever is unjust,     The honest years that speed along          Will trample in the dust.     In restless youth I railed at fate          With all my puny might,     But now I know if I but wait          It all will come out right.     Though Vice may don the judge's gown          And play the censor's part,     And Fact be cowed by Falsehood's frown          And Nature ruled by art;     Though Labour toils through blinding tears          And idle Wealth is might,     I know the honest, earnest years          Will bring it all out right.     Though poor and loveless creeds may pass          For pure religion's gold;     Though ignorance may rule the mass          While truth meets glances cold,     I know a law complete, sublime,          Controls us with its might,     And in God's own appointed time          It all will come out right.
