ALL IS WELL.

By Viola E. Smith

BY VIOLA E. SMITH.

Oh, the peace of simply trusting, On our Father's strong arm resting, None can tell; Though life's storms come fast and faster, E'en to feel amid disaster All is well.

When the lightnings sharp are flashing, And above our heads the crashing Thunders roll, O'er the clouds the sun is shining, And beyond their silver lining All is well.

Thus the sailor on the ocean Though the waves in wild commotion Sound his knell, Feels while on his God relying That in living or in dying All is well.

List, ye tried of every nation, Hear the watchmen from their station. Loud foretell, “Soon the morn shall break in gladness, Soon shall flee earth's care and sadness; All is well.”

Oh, the peace of simply trusting, On our Father's strong arm resting, None can tell; Though life's storms come fast and faster, E'en to feel amid disaster All is well!
