What Cheering Words Are These!

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.
