It is well
Verse 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.”

Tho` Satan should buffet, tho` trials should come,

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
