1 Beloved, "It is well!"
God’s ways are always right;
And perfect love is o’er them all,
Though far above our sight.

And perfect love is o’er them all,
Though far above our sight.
2 Beloved, "It is well!"
Though deep and sore the smart,
The hand that wounds knows how to bind
And heal the broken heart.
Though deep and sore the smart,
The hand that wounds knows how to bind
And heal the broken heart.
3 Beloved, "It is well!"
Though sorrow clouds our way,
’T will only make the joy more dear
That ushers in the day.
Though sorrow clouds our way,
’T will only make the joy more dear
That ushers in the day.
