Author: John Kent Hymnal: Laudes Domini #448 (1888) Hymnal Title: Laudes Domini First Line: What cheering words are these Lyrics: 1 What cheering words are these;
Their sweetness who can tell?
In time, and to eternal days,
"'Tis with the righteous well!"
2 Well when they see his face,
Or sink amidst the flood;
Well in affliction's thorny maze,
Or on the mount with God.
3 'Tis well when joys arise,
'Tis well when sorrows flow,
'Tis well when darkness vails the skies,
And strong temptations grow.
4 'Tis well when Jesus calls,--
"From earth and sin arise,
To join the hosts of ransomed souls,
Made to salvation wise!" Topics: Christians Privileges; Communion of Saints At Lord's Table; Covenant Divine Languages: English Tune Title: LUTHER
