On every sunny mountain
In every gloomy dell—
Whate’er the robe that wraps the heart
’Tis with the righteous well.
’Tis well
’tis well
’Tis with the righteous well;
In pleasure’s light
and sorrow’s night
’Tis with the righteous well.
’Tis well
’tis well
’Tis with the righteous well;
In pleasure’s light
and sorrow’s night
’Tis with the righteous well.
What words of holy comfort!
Their sweetness who can tell?
Within the vale
and o’er the flood
’Tis with the righteous well.
Tho’ dripping clouds may gather
And grief the bosom swell
The trusting heart will ever sing—
’Tis with the righteous well.
And when the strife is over
And hushed the solemn knell
Within the gates
around the throne
’Tis with the righteous well.
