Lyrics
VERSE 1
When peace like a river attendeth my way
When sorrows like sea billows roll
Whatever my lot, thou has taught me to say
It is well, it is well with my soul.
VERSE 2
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
VERSE 3
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 bear it no more
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, O my soul!
VERSE 4
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.
CHORUS
It is well – It is well – With my soul – with my soul
It is well – It is well – With my soul
