Lyrics
When peace is like a river rushing my way
When trouble’s like an ocean wave after wave
It is well
I don’t know all the answers but I know that You are good
And You are always faithful no matter how it looks
It is well
It is well with my soul
It is well through the highs and lows
You’re on my side
You’re for me I know
It is well with my soul
Your spirit’s my assurance when trials may come
I’m holding to the promise that You’ve already won
It is well
And all my sin and shame I bear it no more
It’s nailed to the cross, forever I am Yours
It is well
It is well with my soul
It is well through the highs and lows
You’re on my side
You’re for me, I know
It is well with my soul
In the fire and the flames
In my pain
You are with me
This is not the end
You’re not finished yet
You’re still moving
No matter what I’ve lost
Or what it costs
My heart will sing
It is well with my soul
It is well through the highs and lows
You’re on my side
You’re for me I know
It is well with my soul
Oh, it is well with my soul
It is well through the highs and lows
You’re on my side
You’re for me I know
It is well with my soul
It is well with my soul
Till I reach the day that my faith shall be sight
And I see it all so clearly standing in Your light
It is well

About This Song
From the first time I heard this song I was so excited for you to hear it too. The more people I talk to and pray for the more I’m aware of so many who are dealing with anxiety, worry and fear on some level. I think we all deal with it in one way or another at different times in our lives. Those who are dealing with it right now will find great encouragement from this tune and those who aren’t will still relate so well.
Also, this new song from Finding Favour is not a remake of the old hymn, “It Is Well With My Soul” but I have to believe this song was inspired by it. And if you’ve never had the privlege of knowing the story behind the writing of the original Hymn" “It Is Well With My Soul."
