eve-ry pain and sor-row free-I shall the King hide my Saviour from my eyes-I soon shall mount Tune, tune your harps-your harps, ye saints in glory! All is well,-All is well: I will rehearse-rehearse the pleasing story; All is well,-All is well: Bright angels are from glory come; They're round my bed-they 're in my room- All is well,-All is well. 4 SONNET. 8s & 4.. 1.
