It Is Well with My Soul
Horatio Spafford and Philip Bliss
(Chorus by Theodore Amper)
It is well! It is well!
Lord we trust in Your sovereign will!
Rest in God, O my soul!
Take my mind, my heart, my life my all!
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.
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! It is well!
Lord we trust in Your sovereign will!
Rest in God, O my soul!
Take my mind, my heart, my life my all!
To the world, we will tell-
It is well!
My sin, oh, the bliss of this glorious thought—
My sin, not in part, but the whole,
It was 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!
Lord we trust in Your sovereign will!
Rest in God, O my soul!
Take my mind, my heart, my life my all!
To the world, we will tell-
It is well!
It is well (it is well)
With my soul (with my soul)
And Lord, haste the day when my 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! It is well!
Lord we trust in Your sovereign will!
Rest in God, O my soul!
Take my mind, my heart, my life my all!
To the world, we will tell-
It is well!
