Come into this forest deep and dark
And walk along the path that’s winding through
Gaze upon each shadow that lies silent
And waiting and watching, watching you.
Although the forest seems so dark and still
Unpenetrated by the smallest light
Soon the path continues up the hill
And opens under starry starry night.
And all is well
And all is right
All is well
There is safety in the starry starry night.
Untie the boat and drift out slip out in the stream
Into the mighty current deep and wide
Up above a storm is gathering
The shore is growing farther from my sight.
Though the river runs so cold and fast
Unchallenged by this tiny boat I row
By and by the rapids all are passed
And there is comfort in the gentle river’s flow.
And all is well
I’m safe and sound
All is well
There is peace upon my river
Homeward bound.
Come into this house so filled with light
And walk among these people here today
Everyone is sharing in this flight
Everyone a traveler on their (the) way.
We reach our destinations (destination) even though
Every journey seems to hold some tears
We look into ourselves to find the strength
If we listen deep inside we just might hear (And when we listen to our hearts we always hear)
That all is well
And all is right all is well
There is healing in the starry starry night.
And all is well
I’m safe and sound
All is well, all is well
There is peace upon my river
Homeward bound.
