Text: | When Peace Like a River Attendeth |
Author: | Horatio G. Spafford |
Tune: | VILLE DU HAVRE |
Composer: | Philip P. Bliss |
1 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.
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. (Refrain)
3 My sin--O 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! (Refrain)
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 so"--it is well with my soul. (Refrain)
