When Peace Like A River


When peace like a river attendeth my way
When sorrows like sea billows roll
What ever my lot, thou has taught be to say
It is well, it is well in my soul

CHORUS
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 has regarded my helpless state
And has shed His own blood for my soul

CHORUS
It is well, (it is well)
With my soul
It is well, it is well
With my soul

My sin, oh the bliss of this glorious thought my sin,
Not in part but the whole
Is nailed to the cross, and bear it no more
Praise the Lord, Praise the Lord Oh my soul.

CHORUS
It is well, (it is well)
With my soul
It is well, it is well
With my soul

For me, be it Christ, be it Christ hence to live
If Jordan above me shall roll
No pang shall be mine
For in death as in life
Thou wilt whisper thy peace to my soul

CHORUS
It is well, (it is well)
With 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

CHORUS
It is well, (it is well)
With my soul
It is well, it is well
With my soul

But Lord tis for thee
For thy coming we wait
The sky not the grave is our goal
The shout of the angel
The Voice of the Lord
Blessed hope
Blessed rest of my soul.

CHORUS
It is well, (it is well)
With my soul
It is well, it is well
With my soul
