Come, Come, Ye Saints

"[2] Clayton wrote the hymn "All is Well" on April 15, 1846, as his Mormon pioneer caravan rested at Locust Creek, Iowa, over 100 miles west of its origin city of Nauvoo, Illinois.

Just prior to writing the lyrics, Clayton had received word that one of his wives, Diantha, had given birth to a healthy boy in Nauvoo.

"[2] The lyrics of the hymn were originally published in 1848 in a small collection known as Songs from the Mountains and were added to an official LDS hymnbook in the 1851 edition of the Manchester Hymnal.

The hymn was published with the current music (the "Winter Quarters" tune) for the first time in the 1889 edition of the Latter-day Saints' Psalmody.

"Come, Come, Ye Saints" features prominently in celebrations of Pioneer Day in Utah and in performances of the Tabernacle Choir at Temple Square.

[4] Arrangements of the song have also consistently been used in the daily organ recitals at Temple Square.

We'll find the place which God for us prepared, Far away, in the West, Where none shall come to hurt or make afraid; There the saints, will be blessed.

We'll make the air, with music ring, Shout praises to our God and King; Above the rest these words we'll tell - All is well!

But if our lives are spared again To see the Saints their rest obtain, Oh, how we'll make this chorus swell- All is well!
