Scripture: Habakkuk 3:17-18 Used With Tune: BENTLEY

Heav'nly peace, divinest comfort, here by faith in him to dwell; for I know, whate'er befall me, Jesus doeth all things well; for I know, whate'er befall me, Jesus doeth all things well. 2 All the way my Savior leads me, cheers each winding path I tread, gives me grace for ev'ry trial, feeds me with the living bread. Though my weary steps may falter, and my soul a-thirst may be, gushing from the rock before me, lo, a spring of joy I see; gushing from the rock before me, lo, a spring of joy I see! 3 All the way my Savior leads me - O the fullness of his love! perfect rest to me is promised in my Father's house above: when my spirit, clothed, immortal, wings its flight to realms of day, this my song through endless ages: Jesus led me all the way; this my song through endless ages: Jesus led me all the way!
