It Shall Be Well With You

Say ye to the righteous, that it shall be well 
With him, for they shall eat the fruit of their doings.
                            -Isaiah 3:10


Though peace your soul is denied
But your heart seeks many a things well
Hear ye the word of the lord
"It shall be well with you"

Though sorrow your home reside
And thy pain comes with the day
Hear ye the word of the lord
"It shall be well with you"

When darkness has passed away
And a new day has come your way
This is what the lord had said
"It shall be well with you"

When the sun's sleep begin
And the stars are out in grace
This is what the lord had said
"It shall be well with you"

Though thy shame be great indeed
And your name has a date with pain
If thy hope remains in God
"It shall be well with you"

So a poor wage you endure
But an entrepreneur you long to become 
If thy hope remains in God
"It shall be well with you"
