IT IS WELL WITH MY SOUL

IT IS WELL WITH MY SOUL
Haratio G. Spafford 1828 - 1888 Philip B. Bliss 1738 - 1876
When peace, like a river, attendeth my way,
When sorrows like sea billows roll;
Whatever my lot, Thou hast taught me to say,
It is well, it is well with my soul.
It is well, with my soul,
It is well, it is well with my soul.
Though Satan should buffet, tho' trials should come,
Let this blest assurance control,
That Christ has regarded my helpless estate,
And hath shed His own blood for my soul.
It is well, with my soul,
It is well, it is well, with my soul.
My sin oh, the bliss of this glorious tho't:
My sin not in part, but the whole
Is nailed to the cross and I hear it no more,
Praise the Lord, Praise the Lord, O my soul!
It is well, with my soul,
It is well, it is well with my soul.
And, Lord, haste the day when the faith shall be sight,
The clouds be rolled back as a scroll,
The trump shall resound and the Lord shall descend,
"Even so, " it is well with my soul.
It is well with my soul,
It is well, it is well with my soul.
