Lyrics to "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 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.
My sin-oh, the bliss of this glorious thought!-
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!
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.
But, Lord, ’tis for Thee, for Thy coming we wait,
The sky, not the grave, is our goal;
Oh, trump of the angel! Oh, voice of the Lord!
Blessed hope, blessed rest of my soul!
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 so, it is well with my soul

57 years ago all four of my immediate family, mother, father, brother and sister died in an air crash. I did not travel with them. This hymn is my favourite, eloquently in words and music, expressing the peace I now feel.

[@dee4174]

Thank you for sharing. ❤ May Christ continue to give you peace. X

[@shawnajones2038]

May God continue to give you peace as you live without your family for now.

[@dorotheaivanovna9457]

My prayers for you 🙏 ❤️ So very sorry for your tragic loss...

[@jacinthabrice5296]

Much strength!

[@lucyprice6237]

May you always feel them in your life every day wherever you go!!

[@Essence31217]

I was feeling lost. During the Christmas season, there is no one. My mother died this year; there is no one. I am a widow; all aunts, uncles, and cousins have passed. I have no children. I felt so sad. Now, it is well with my soul. This performance pulled me right out of the deep black hole. I am alive, and my work continues. The concert was brilliant. ❤❤❤❤❤❤thank you a thousand times.

[@robinhanley8736]

Ah, Stephanie. Not for one moment have you been out of God's sight. I don't know what He has ahead for you. But I can tell you this - you are now and have always, ALWAYS, been significant, precious, and treasured by our Father God. I pray you come to know Him more richly in the days ahead.

[@1e0s]

You are never alone💖

[@kristyhuvensohns2583]

Stephanie, please try your best to not give into that "alone" feeling. It's only temporary...always a phase and always phases are temporary. You are not ever 100% alone. Jesus does not allow that ever! Talk with others...smile at kind looking little families and children. Go shopping and stroll around but only buy something small for someone else~♡

[@barbarmstrong2343]

May God's choicest blessings be yours! Life can feel so lonely at times. I know that God loves you and you have many guardian angels watching over you! Merry Christmas!

[@anaseinilangi8890]

My Husband passed away five years now . Faith took me to where I am now. Grateful to the mercy and love of God and His Beloved Son Jesus Christ Infinite Atonement that took me to Hope that made all things possible if truly Repent and repent daily through Him all things possible. Hope can heal sorrow souls. It is well It is well with my soul. How I love the Words and Lyrics of this beautiful Rendition.

[@Welderswife1]

I am in the middle of yet another crippling migraine and the words to this beautiful hymn bring me comfort and peace. I know that my Lord and Saviour suffered much worse pain than I in order to save us all from the ravishes of hell. I raise my head as I listen to this beautiful sacred words and feel God’s amazing strength all around me as I lay in my bed. I’m 72 and Praise The Lord, it is well with my soul.

[@lisaclaire4679]

My uncle is leaving soon to be with Jesus forever. My sister just sang this song to him by his beside in the hospital. This hymn has soothed many a grieving soul over the years. It speaks for our hurting hearts when we have no words.

[@JanSmith0909]

Sharing your sadness...

[@marywinthrop2214]

My husband went to heaven three years ago. He loved this hymn and always had tears rolling down his cheeks, but he did not know the story. I wish we had known it, and he always said he wanted this hymn sung at his funeral. It took me hours to find our CD with this hymn but late at night I found the CD with David Phelps singing! He would have been so pleased. For some reason I have missed him very much today and I came across this video tonight. I can say IT IS WELL WITH MY SOUL!

[@olayinkasanni8191]

For you reading this, l pray that God's grace will be sufficient for you, your feet will never slip and our Hope in JESUS CHRIST will heal us ALL! AMEN. 💓💖💐💕

Thank you, dear Hugh , and the Mormon Tabernacle Choir and Utah symphony, for sharing this lovely story of love and faith. I pray Almighty God is with all of us. Thank you Jesus.

[@jameslowery1659]

Almost 3 years ago we lost a daughter. We used this hymn at her memorial service because I knew the story behind the hymn. If someone who just lost daughters like we just lost our one, could write such wonderful words, I had to use it. She is gone but it is well with my soul. Rest in God's arms Tara.

[@nancykhong857]

Amen!

[@SAVANNAHEVENTS]

[@cindycole4326]

Hugh Bonneville is a master at narration! I latch on to every word every phrase. A wonderful actor. May he be blessed with years of success and goodwill

[@risefromthedust]

One of the absolute finest things to ever air on Television. We were actually there in person on this night. There is such a powerful spirit in this whole story. Truly, out of the ashes and through the Atonement of Jesus Christ we can all be healed, reunited, and sealed up in the heavens to our everlasting and Eternal Parents. The storms of life provide the training ground and experience we all need. Every curriculum is tailor-made to suit us to what we each need. God be thanked for the gift of His divine Son!

[@dahlyiadubonnet]

It must have been an amazing event to witness in person. I wish I could have witnessed it myself. May God bless everyone! 🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️😇😇😇

[@marymount20]

I was serving a mission at the time and was there in person too it was wonderful 😊

[@dlux3272]

Before my devout Christian Mother passed away in the hospital, she told me everything was gonna be ok. I knew what she meant and I found comfort, even in her passing. A comfort that can only be found in Jesus Christ. I still miss my mother dearly but I know beyond a shadow of a doubt.....IT IS WELL.

[@betheubank3121]

My 2 year old grandson was abducted in 2006 days later his mom my daughter passed away. This song has given me much faith and strength knowing the faith this man had. Everytime I hear this I’m brought to tears. The words are very powerful and restores my strength and faith to continue on and never give up hope my grandson will be recovered.

[@namewitheld2568]

May God give you strength and some measure of comfort. You grief I cannot even imagine.

[@lauradeer8567]

I pray your grandson will be reunited with you. Your faith is beautiful.

[@cherylmockotr]

I pray this as well. He is 18 now, so I pray soon he matures enough to start questioning and searching on his own. The simple genealogy DNA tests are reuniting families again and again, many who were never even aware they had been abducted. I pray your family becomes one them!

[@specialk3720]

It breaks my heart for you to have to live with not knowing. Thanks to the Savior, that little boy is not entirely lost.

[@Kenngo1969]

I hope you hold out hope, one day, for a glorious, joyous reunion. This season, and this wonderful hymn, is a reminder that, eventually, all that is wrong in life may be made right through Christ Jesus. Warm Regards and Best Wishes, Along With Sincerest Condolences for Your Losses, -Ken K. Gourdin

[@lrwilliams3160]

I lost my 4th son Feb 2020 in a plane crash my hope is in the Lord !

[@juliepdem5275]

I pray that, as we're entering this holiday season celebrating the birth of Christ, that it will be well with your soul. May you find peace, joy, and a deep well-being whenever you think of your son and any others lost in the accident. Again, I say, may it be well with your soul.

[@MarilynParker5865]

So sorry for ypur loss ♡

[@gregfisher]

My sin, oh, the bliss of this glorious thought! 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!

[@stella62mom]

My absolute favorite verse in this song. This is where I always lose it.

[@peppers8489]

It has always been my favorite verse as well, for without the redemptive work of Christ completed on the cross, I would never be able to say "it is well with my soul"!

[@carolmartin2503]

AMEN & AMEN ! Even so, Come, Lord Jesus ! =|

May the lives we live bear witness to his regenerative work.

I imagined one day when I was already in Heaven. We will continue to praise the name of the Lord Jesus every day and the joyful faces will continue to color our lives. No more sickness, no more sin, only glorifying the name of the Lord Jesus. Thanks for this vids! Im so excited to the resf of life. Jesus Bless Us..

[@lesleyknox1243]

There is only one reason that it can be well with my soul ...and that is the hope and promise found in Jesus Christ our saviour who sacrificed himself that we may all be reunited again. What a glorious certainty for those who follow Him ... 💖🤗 turn to Him and be saved.

AMEN!

[@sevagabrilian434]

[@dawntucek9791]

It is well!

[@rodericgray5202]

I knew this story behind the song but I'm still moved to tears by hearing you tell it. This is also the first time I've heard "the rest of the story". You did a beautiful job of telling it Mr Bonneville.

[@jo-lene9679]

100%! I knew how the hymn came about (the treacherous sea voyage) but had no idea about the rest of the family's story. Incredible! What a blessing to so many 🙏

[@patmelton43]

We know we shall be together again after the resurrection if we have Jesus in our hearts. What a family reunion that will be!

[@user-eq2gs1dv9y]

Amen

[@teresavandal4973]

Mr. Bonneville; I don't know if YOU will ever realize yourself how beautifully timed this video was, and how much of a purpose you had fulfilled. God Bless You, and all the choir indeed!!

[@jaiciestarks3836]

Amen

[@brendalaird6942]

Hugh Bonneville has become my favorite actor!

[@awakeandalive60]

The first time my pastor taught us about Horatio Spafford, I lost it. As a mother to three daughters, the idea of continuing on after something like that seems truly insurmountable. I'm incredibly faithful in my loving God...but I'll admit, that would test it so greatly. More than anything else I could go through. I pray constantly that I will never find myself in a situation like this.

[@s.davidanantharaj5310]

From India. I have heard this historical hymn many times and sang in the Egmore Wesley Church Choir. Your narration brought the tears in my eyes. I listened to the song again and again. Bring out such stories of other popular songs also. I am 70 years old. Pray for my family and my ministry. We help the poor children to go to school from remote villages. At present 192 students are studying in five hostels.

[@lisaeyesopen6598]

May the Lord bless you. Our hope is in Jesus Christ. What a blessing you are to so many.

[@kathywright9820]

Bless you for your good work.

[@delajiniusmusic]

The Lord is surely your strength and provider🙏😇

[@johnpendleton914]

I, a grown man, wants to cry every time this song is sung. Because I remember the inspiration for it. As you say here. A man who lost his family was inspired to write it. Very moving song. Very emotional.

[@user-ov8iz9vz4n]

I'm an atheist, and heck, even I'm moved to become a Christian when I hear this song!

[@Jared7873]

I cry like a baby, and I'm agnostic.

[@DonnieTHORMacLEOD]

When my mom died I picked this Hymn for my mother's funeral. It was a great comfort to my dad & I as He & I put our Faith in joining her Soul in the future Mansion prepared for them in the Kingdom of Heaven.

[@judycyg6912]

I am a firm believer in God and His plan, that He loves each one of us...and it is well with my soul

[@swilliams7446]

This brings so much peace to me now in my time of troubles.. thank you Lord ... I am feeling so lost. The Lord is my strength I will not give up

[@Tinagrit]

I’m just feeling myself falling into panic & depression. So much has changed in my life & I know others are suffering too. If it were not for Jesus.. smh..🙏🏻😣

[@user-nk4qu1ip7c]

Me too..prayers

[@elviramcintosh9878]

It is REALLY well with my soul. Thank you for reminding us that sorrow is the road to the story of love, hope and redemption en-fleshed in Jesus at Bethlehem.

[@Mack6234]

Wow, that touched me. I never knew there was a story behind the hymn. Thanks to everyone for bringing that to me and God bless you all. 🙏 🙏🙏

[@oluchiodenyi6556]

God! What a flurry of emotions... I couldn't hold back my tears as I listened to the narrator. I didn't even know whether my tears are for the story or the song. I remembered my Dad today and how we lost him. But like this faithful family, I say it's well with my soul

[@user-ov8iz9vz4n]

It's one of those rare moments when truly inspiring words spawned from tragic events were given a truly inspiring melody. Even unbelievers who sing this song in church start to cry! The only time that ever happened again was with the theme song to Titanic, people had the same emotional reaction.

[@jamesabate]

Even though it's not Christmas myself was diagnosed with terminal bone cancer two years ago I was lost not even to be in church now I go every Sunday and listen to this song every night the word keep me out of the dark and keep me going

[@nick2658]

I’m very sorry to hear that bro..do you still go to church ?

[@jibson0727]

I pray you receive healing in Jesus name.

[@frahn1702]

My four children sang this at my sister’s funeral. It is a wonderful song.

[@jerusgirl]

This song has grounded me through many storms of life. I am so thankful for a heritage of faith that we have in Christ and in the Body of Christ, those who believe in Him. There is no peace, except in Christ. Life is hard. He is faithful.

[@timbooker6402]

My Dad's favourite hymn and he could sing it better than anyone I have ever heard. It was from his heart and he is there with his Saviour in Heaven now waiting for us all to follow the path he walked as our example. The story of the man that wrote the music for this song is also one of immense suffering.

[@tinahamilton9058]

Hugh Bonneville was surely meant to bring this message to us all, especially now.

[@abigailsavage7456]

Didn't realize I would scroll long enough to see Lord Grantham being a conductor

[@cranstonchristopher9212]

Only our LORD AND GOD know how many times "It Is Well With My Soul "has been sung and how many souls have been lifted out of despair. These words, penned by Horatio Spafford show the strength that GOD gave him to face the tragedies in life, It is a magnificent testimony of the entire family to have gone through so much and were triumphant in The Lord

[@dianemilligan3839]

What a stellar performance! Thankfully, I had tissues nearby. Thank you to Mr. Bonneville for a fantastic narration, to the Choir for their Heavenly voices, and those in the cast. God bless you all!

[@julianaramalho7431]

This was my grandma’s favorite song and today it’s mine as well. Even with Alzheimer’s disease she’d remembered and sang this for me. May God bless us all!

Unbelievable how many emotions you can go through in 16 minutes. This story was beautifully narrated, I teared up several times

[@heathercuevas978]

Wow. I did not know this story behind this song. Wow. Sooo very glad I came upon this video today.

[@MrSharpdrop]

The hours of rehearsal it would take for me to pull this off without breaking down in sobs is unimaginable at this point. I began this video knowing full good and well the first half of the story. But the moment they began with the little girls' and their mother's visual reenactment, the father in me couldn't stop sobbing.

[@silakoula]

I don't cry very easily, but when that scene came up, couldn't hold back the tears.

[@eleanor8002]

What a wonderful story of a families faith saving them from pain and giving them the strength and courage to do so much to for others. That it continues today is a a testament to what faith can do, so uplifting and inspiring.

[@jmcbc1963]

Those who gave a thumbs down to this, need our prayers.

[@alexandrajustice5072]

One of my mothers favorite hymns.

[@lucymatos5776]

I am moved to tears, listening to this, watching it, feeling it, knowing that after losing my son 4 years ago. One of my all time favorite hymns and the words live in my heart and have given me such comfort. To hear Huge Bonneville tell it, was super special. God chose him and his soothing voice to carry this true story to all of us, to remind us that as long as God is within us, our souls will be well.

[@bcgrittner]

I have performed that song many times over the years. I never knew the story behind that song. I am moved to tears. Never again will I sing this song without recalling the tragedy that led to its creation. As for today - it is well with my soul. Blessings to all.

[@helenel4126]

Whenever we sing this hymn in our church choir, I sing through my tears, at the joy that Christ has rescued us, no matter how dreadful the ordeal Satan has thrown us against. I knew about the shipwreck, but not the rest of the Spaffords' story. What a beautiful presentation.

[@amoitalia53]

With what is going on in our world today, this truly lifted my soul. I have had the pleasure is singing this hymn with dear friends. Never forget that God is in control. Praise be to God! It is well with my soul

[@wphubert]

A great indication that the peace of God that passes all understanding was and continues for all of us.

[@irenetiedt2445]

We can all learn from this inspirational true story when we are confronted with hard ships and heartache.

[@LifeandLifeMoreAbundantly]

Thank God for Jesus whose life has blessed the world through people like these 🙏🏼

[@rudybeck3075]

We all have the freedom to make choices of all sort as we go though our days. My choice is to follow Jesus Christ all the day of my life, asking that he guide me and teach me the best pathway for my life, that he keep a watch over me, protect from evil and grant me His peace. And, that He help me become an instrument through which His Will becomes evident in the things that I think, do and say.

[@annahawman1671]

I have never knew this story. I was intrigued by Hugh's performance in downton abbey so I came on here. Amazed

[@alanbrooke-feather7567]

I have sung this Hymn many times. It is a favourite of mine yet until now I never knew the story behind it.

I cannot go on my tablet without listening to this song; it doesn't need to be any time or reason. When I first heard this song, it became a favorite, but this year is the first time I heard the story behind it. I don't think anyone can listen to this song without doing it through tears. I have never heard anything so beautiful. This has become my all time favorite. I find myself humming or singing it many times during the day. Thank. You so much for your example . I have had a very rough year and this has helped me immensely. Sherry Shappell.

[@barryguy5034]

One day Soon, there will be no more tears, Thank you Lord, hearing this reminded me of a much smaller men’s choir singing “It is well with my soul” led by their Pastor John Mollitt at Ingleton Evangelical Church. It was thirty years ago, but very memorable.

[@thomasp.1533]

I’ve been feeling down recently. I turned this on for a completely unrelated reason, but hearing it a few time, “it is well with my soul” is clearly something I needed to hear.

I was honored and blessed to be able to sing this requested hymn an my mother's funeral in 2015. My son accompanied me on the piano and joined me on the chorus for a duet. My mother was a wonderful example of loving, giving and serving family and friends. She served the Lord and lived to be over 93 years old. I miss her still, especially at Christmas. Growing up my grandmother's (mom's mom) birthday was December 24th. As long as I can remember as a teenager Mom always had bittersweet memories at Christmas. I knew the story behind the writing of the hymn; however this dramatization with music and narration was beautiful. I had no idea of the various examples of service and ministry the family had in later years...what a blessing they were.

Saw a rendition of the Grinch Who (TRIED) to steal Christmas. Even though he took all their gifts and decorations, still, in the morning, as he listening for their wailing, he was shocked to hear them SINGING... Life and Immortality has been brought to LIFE through the GOSPEL. Praise the Lord!

Mr. Bonneville, you made such a beautiful and sensitive narration, with your own feelings enriching your voice! This story with so much grief, yet lives and souls that went on to love and serve is more than inspiring! This beautiful and sensitive portrayal brought it to life. Thank-you!
