My Jesus has Done all Things Well

Representative Text

1 Now in a song of grateful praise,

2 How sov’reign, wonderful, and free
Has been Thy love to sinful me!
Thou sav’dst me from the jaws of hell;
My Jesus hath done all things well.

3 Since e’er my soul has known His love,
What mercies He has made me prove!
Mercies which do all praise excel!
My Jesus hath done all things well.

4 And when to that bright world I rise,
And join the anthems of the skies,
Above the rest this note shall swell,
My Jesus hath done all things well.
