The Lord is my portion says my soul, therefore I hope in Him.

Project Details
"It is Well With My Soul," is such a theologically rich and comforting hymn. It provides great encouragement to those who are trusting in Christ, but experiencing the "trouble in this world," that our Savior warned would be our lot. (John 16:33). It is even more powerful, when one considers the circumstances which prompted Horatio G. Spaffford to take pen in hand as he traveled across the sea to join his wife, who had earlier departed with their daughters for a trip abroad. The ship they were in encountered rough seas and sank. Many lives were lost inlcuding the Spafford's young daughters. As his ship passed over the spot where it was thought the first ship went down, he picked up his pen and, by the grace of God and for the edification of saints for ages to come, he penned this hymn:
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 has
regarded my helpless estate,
and hath shed his
own blood for my soul.
(Refrain)
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!
(Refrain)
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.
(Refrain)
