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

Verse 2

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

 Verse 3

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

Help us Lord, in Your suffering, death, resurrection, and profound glory, may we partake in it all, so through the death of the old we may be part of the new. Therefore, no longer do we look back with wanting towards what is old, but in You, we know what is old is sin, that which is carnal, which You have freed us from, and is still freeing us, and will one day return to free us from the chain of death once and for all! Thus we cry out, “It is well with my soul!!” knowing of the hope of our future which is secure in Christ Jesus, though we cannot see what is promised yet, we believe, because we have faith even that of a mustard seed, of the good miracle of God, and by serving His Church and God Almighty, we may be redeemed, not by the versus of faith and works, but both combined, which guards our hearts and our minds in Christ Jesus our Lord, Who has mercy on us all. May the peace of God and our Lord Jesus go with you as you dwell in His house forever. Amen.
