1 Looking to Jesus, how can we stray?
Has He not promised to guide us alway?
Tho’ foes assail us, strong in His might,
Jesus is reigning, all will be right.

Refrain:
All will be right, yes, all will be right,
Kept by the Master, all will be right;
Tho’ foes assail, truth shall prevail;
Jesus is reigning, all will be right.

2 Clouds may obscure the light of His face,
Still we’ll go forward, and trust in His grace;
Walking in faith, e’en darkness is light;
Jesus is reigning, all will be right. [Refrain]

3 Firm as the Christ-rock, safe evermore,
Death’s sullen waters about us may roar,
Heav’n’s day is dawning—farewell the night;
Jesus is reigning, all will be right. [Refrain]

Lizzie De Armond was a prolific writer of children's hymns, recitations and exercises. When she was twelve years old her first poem was published in the Germantown, Pa. Telegraph, however, it was not until she was a widow with eight children to support that she started writing in earnest. She wrote articles, librettos, nature stories and other works, as well as hymns.
