Hymnal: The Morning Stars Sang Together #8 (1897) First Line: O never despair at the troubles of life Lyrics: 1 O never despair at the troubles of life, All's right! Amidst all anxiety, peril, and strife, All's right! O trustfulness, cheerfulness, never were wrong, I'll make it my glory, my strength and my song, All ever and ever is right! All ever and ever is right! 2 The pilot beside us is steering us still, All's right! The Father above us is guarding from ill. All's right! I will not go trembling in fear to the end, But trustful and cheerful, on him I depend. All ever and ever is right! All ever and ever is right! Tune Title: [O never despair at the troubles of life]
