We stand in the ashes of ruins, We are ready to fight the fight, O, you whose feet are firm on the Rock, Bring us the Light! You cannot--you shall not forget us, Out here in the darkest night, We are drowning men, we are dying men, Bring, O, bring us the Light! ALL'S WELL! 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! HIS MERCY ENDURETH FOR EVER Our feet have wandered, wandered far and wide,-- _His mercy endureth for ever_! From that strait path in which the Master died,-- _His mercy endureth for ever_! Low have we fallen from our high estate, Long have we lingered, lingered long and late; _But the tenderness of God Is from age to age the same, And His Mercy endureth for ever_! There is no sin His Love can not forgive;-- _His mercy endureth for ever_! No soul so stained His Love will not receive; _His mercy endureth for ever_! No load of sorrow but His touch can move, No hedge of thorns that can withstand His Love; _For the tenderness of God Is from age to age the same, And His Mercy endureth for ever_! So we will sing, whatever may betide;-- _His mercy endureth for ever_! Nought but ourselves can keep us from His side;-- _His mercy endureth for ever_! What though no place we win in life's rough race, Our loss may prove the measure of His grace. _For the tenderness of God Is from age to age the same, And His Mercy endureth for ever_! GOD IS GOOD
