It Is Well

Verse 1

      G                   C          G
When peace like a river attendeth my way,

     Em           A           D
When sorrows like sea billows roll;

    G       C              A            D
Whatever my lot, Thou hast taught me to say,

       G           C    D      G
"It is well, it is well with my soul."


Chorus

G                    D
It is well
               It is well

                       G
with my soul,
               with my soul,

      C           G    D      G
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--O, the bliss of this glorious though,
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 son"--it is well with my soul.
