Andrew Peterson - All Shall Be Well lyrics

rate me

We touched down on the sound

At the top of the world

In the land of the midnight sun

Where the frozen river melts away

And breaks into a run

Into the sea, into the mighty waves

That waited just to see it

From a long way off that river thawed

And the tide ran out to meet it

“Welcome home, unfrozen river, welcome home”

‘Cause all shall be well, all shall be well

Break the chains of the gates of Hell

Still all manner of things will be well

See the quiet hearts of the children of

The children of this land

They have stayed alive in the day-long night

By the fires that warm their hands

There is a wilderness inside them

It is dark and thick and deep

And beside the fire at the heart of that wood

Is a precious missing sheep

So go on in, hold your torch, let it shine

‘Cause all shall be well, all shall be well

Break the chains of the gates of Hell

Still all manner of things will be well

All shall be well, all shall be well

The Word of God will never fail

And all manner of things will be well

There’s a light in the darkness

There’s an end to the night

I saw the sun go down on a frozen ocean

As the man in the moon was rising

And he rode the night all full and bright

With his face at the far horizon

And the night can be so long, so long

You think you’ll never get up again

But listen now, it’s a mighty cloud of

Witnesses around you—they say

“Hold on, just hold on

Hold on to the end

And all shall be well”
