It Is Well with My Soul

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.

My sin..O the bliss

of this glorious thought..

My sin not in part,

but the whole,

My sin 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,

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, 

it is well with my Soul.

I have always loved this hymn.

About a month before my mother passed away

our choir sang this hymn

My mother asked me what was the name of

the piece that we had just sung

and I told her it was

"It Is Well with My Soul"

My mother knew she did not have

long to live,

she asked our pastor to have it played at her funeral.

I did not know she had done this,

So at the funeral when the organ

began to play it...

I remembered our conversation...

and it gave me Peace.
