It Is Well with My Soul

"When peace like a river attendeth my way
When sorrows like sea-billows roll
Whatever my lot, You have taught me to say,
It is well, it is well with my soul.

It is well (it is well)
It is well (it is well)
It is well, it is well with my soul.

Though the devil will ruin, though trials may come
Let this blessed assurance control
That Christ has regarded my helpless estate
And He shed His own blood for my soul.

... It is well, it is well with my soul.

My sin, oh the bliss of this glorious thought
My sin, not in part, but the whole
Is nailed to the cross and I bear it no more
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, oh my soul!

... It is well, it is well with my soul.

And Lord, haste the day when my faith shall be sight
And the clouds be rolled back as a scroll
The trump shall resound and the Lord shall descend
Even so, it is will with my soul.

... It is well, it is well with my soul."

Horation Spafford (traditional words)
