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!”
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!
It is well, it is well with my soul!

Though Satan should buffet, though trials should come,
Let this blest assurance control,
That Christ hath regarded my helpless estate,
And hath shed His own blood for my soul.
Let this blest assurance control,
That Christ hath regarded my helpless estate,
And hath shed His own blood for my soul.

My sin—oh, the bliss of this glorious thought—
My sin, not in part, but the whole,
Is nailed to His Cross, and I bear it no more;
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, O my soul!
My sin, not in part, but the whole,
Is nailed to His Cross, and I bear it no more;
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, O my soul!
4
For me, be it Christ, be it Christ hence to live;
If dark hours about me shall roll,
No pang shall be mine, for in death as in life
Thou wilt whisper Thy peace to my soul.
If dark hours about me shall roll,
No pang shall be mine, for in death as in life
Thou wilt whisper Thy peace to my soul.

As a elder brother in the family of four sons and three daughters, today my younger brother was compelled to resign from the job he so much cherished. I googled the song and sang it, that it is well with his soul. I am going to preach in church that for the reason that our Lord Jesus has suffered, we shall not fear to suffer.

Sister Timaru, today I sang this song and then read your comment. Sister I am standing with you. Praise the Lord for the Body. We can experience the oneness.

Today is a very special day for me as it is my birthday and at the same time I received a very alarming news of my husband Etuate and my dear mum who never make it home from the airport after an incident on the road, this song came to mind as I was hoping for peace, I sang it out loud with my two boys under the age of 3 watched me as tears roll down my face...THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOR TEACHING ME THAT IN TIMES SUCH AS THIS I SHOULD CONTINUE TO THANK YOU AND PRAISE YOU AND LEAVE ALL CIRCUMSTANCES INTO YOUR MIGHTY HAND BECAUSE YOU ARE IN CONTROL..AMEN. THANK YOU FOR THIS WONDERFUL, MEANINGFUL UPLIFTIING HYMN. GLORY BE TO GOD💐💐💐💐💐

I am presently in a situation that I need help from the Lord right now. I have vowed to the Lord to deliver me from this situation and not allow me to be put to shame and I will leave all life meeting His need all around the World. Helping others come out of this kind of problem all life.

This song is helping me as right now I'm facing a very difficult time in my life... I first understood the meaning of this song last year during my first year in varsity while this lady was singing it in church.... It helped me to understand that in everything that we encounter in life it could be good or bad we should always trust and lean on God for He is our rock in times of trouble and also in good times so when we have God in our lives He is not only there just to listen to us but He also take our burdens and make them His so we have every reason to sing and proclaim that it is well with our soul for everything we come across in life we have already won in Christ... As we over com by the words of our testimony... Lets keep on trusting and dwelling in his presence and it shall forever be well with our souls.

This is a song of positive confession, regardless of what has happened, anytime I sing it, there is a kind of an assurance that overwhelms me, and assures me that ALL IS WELL.

When trials and tribulations buffet you know that God has got your back. He is in the midst of everything with you and will see you through the other side. Do not look at the size of the problem but look at the sufficiency and the almighty power of the Lord. Declare It is well with my soul! Amen.
