O matchless kindness! and He shows This matchless kindness to His foes! 3 But will He prove a friend indeed? He will; the very friend you need; The Friend of sinners--yes, 'tis He, With garments dyed on Calvary. 4 Admit Him ere His anger burn; His feet, departed, ne'er return; Admit Him, or the hour's at hand You'll at His door rejected stand.

What God does, ever well is done!

Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnal. 9th ed. #a408 (1895) Topics: Christian Life and Hope Lyrics: 1 What God does, ever well is done! His will is just and holy; As He directs my sands to run, My spirit shall keep lowly. He is my God; Though sore the rod, His care doth e'er enfold me: Then may He guide and hold me. 2 What God does, ever well is done! In need He will not quit me. In rightful path He still leads me on; To Him then I submit me. I'll walk His ways, And trust His grace To lift what doth oppress me: It rests with Him to bless me. 3 What God does, ever well is done! He thinks but to befriend me; As Healer mine, and Wondrous One, He will not poison send me Instead of cure. God's heart is pure. Of doubt will I divest me, And on His goodness rest me. 4 What God does, ever well is done! And though the cup selected, Seem to my mind too bitter drawn, Yet will I not reject it. God loveth me! I yet shall see Sweet comfort for my grieving; So I keep on believing. 5 What God does, ever well is done! Of this shall none deprive me; And though on pathway rough and lone, Need, death, and mis'ry drive me, God's arms will bear Me with fond care, Till all my sorrow ceaseth; Then do He, as He pleaseth.
