But with mirth, wend your way
Though hard to you this wayfare may forpeer
Holdness shall be your day‘Tis better for us to strive
Our frimless cares from us to drive;
Do this and mirth your hearts will swell
All is well! All is well!II. We’ll find the stead which they for us begeared
Far away in the West
Where none shall come to hurt or make afeared
Where hallows will be blessed.We will make the wind with dremlist ring
Shout herries to our Lord and King
Above the rest these words will tell
All is well! All is well!
