I found 2 versions of it, the first I am most familiar (and have been greatly comforted by!):<br />This is my Father’s world:<br />Oh, let me ne’er forget<br />That though the wrong seems oft so strong,<br />God is the ruler yet.<br />This is my Father’s world,<br />The battle is not done:<br />Jesus who died shall be satisfied,<br />And earth and Heav’n be one.<br /><br />3 This is my Father's world:<br />O let me ne'er forget<br />That though the wrong seems oft so strong,<br />God is the Ruler yet.<br />This is my Father's world:<br />Why should my heart be sad?<br />The Lord is King: let the heavens ring!<br />God reigns; let earth be glad!
