When (F)peace like a riv er
at (Bb)tend (Csus)eth my way,
when (Dm7)sor row like (Gm7)sea bil lows roll;
what (F)ev er my lot,
Thou hast
taught me to (C)say,
(Bb)“It is well,
it is well
(C7)with my (F)soul.”
It is well
(It is well)
with my soul.
(with my soul.)
It is (F)well,
it is well
(C)with my (F)soul.
My (F)sin,
O, the bliss of
this (Bb)glo
(Csus)ri ous thought;
my (Dm7)sins, not in (Gm7)part
but the whole,
are (F)nailed
to the cross
and I’ll
bear them no (C)more.
(Bb)Praise the Lord,
praise the Lord,
(C7)O my (F)soul.
It is well
(It is well)
with my soul.
(with my soul.)
It is (F)well,
it is well
(C)with my (F)soul.
My (F)soul.
We sing, (Bb)“Ho ly, ho ly, ho ly.” We sing, (F)“Ho ly, ho ly, ho ly.” And we sing, (Bb)“Ho ly is Your name,
O Most High.”
We sing, (Bb)“Ho ly, ho ly, ho ly.” We sing, (F)“Ho ly, ho ly, ho ly.” And we sing, (Bb)“Ho ly is Your name,

And Lord, please
(Dm7)haste the day when my (Bb)faith (C)shall be sight,
the (Dm)clouds be rolled (Gm7)back as a scroll.
The (F)trump shall (F)re (Bb)sound
(Bb)and the (G7sus)Lord (G7)shall de (Csus)scend; e ven so,
it is well
(C7)with my (F)soul.
It is well
(It is well)
with my soul.
(with my soul.)
It is (F)well,
it is well
(C)with my (F)soul.
It is well
(It is well)
