Good Sunday Morning! This is the old song running through my head today, so I thought I would share. When you read all that the writer went through in his life…it makes this song all the more amazing to the heart. I hope that we can all come to a place in our lives where we can say the same that Horatio Spafford did. It. Is. Well.
It Is Well With My Soul
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.
Refrain:
It is well, (it is well),
With my soul, (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.
Horatio Spafford

Paula you have made my Sunday better by reminding me of this Beautiful Hymn!! It is one of my favorites…..You always seem to know just what we all need!! Thanks for all your beautiful thoughts and for sharing them!! 🙂 🙂 🙂
I’m so glad it was what you needed, Dottie…seems we were both needing the same song in our soul today. ♥ Much love ♥

We sang this at bible study tonight – such a lovely song!
That’s so cool!
That and He Lives, perfect songs this week.
Yes they are ♥
I love this hymn – it’s pretty powerful in light of the things that transpired today – even though you posted it yesterday.
To say “It is well” takes some real soul searching. And then when hostility breaks out for no reason….and you can’t fix it….I simply cannot understand God’s patience with evil.
I know what you mean – but thankfully he is patient with us ad with his world.
Yes He is ♥
