What cheering words are these! Their sweetness who can tell? In time and to eternity, ’Tis with the righteous well; In time and to eternity, ’Tis with the righteous well. In every state secure, Kept by Jehovah’s eye, ’Tis well with them while life endures, And well when called to die; ’Tis well with them while life endures, And well when called to die. ’Tis well when joys arise, ’Tis well when sorrows bow, ’Tis well when darkness veils the skies, And strong temptations blow; ’Tis well when darkness veils the skies, And strong temptations blow. ’Tis well when on the mount They feast on dying love, And ’tis as well in God’s account, When they the furnace prove; And ’tis as well in God’s account, When they the furnace prove. |
