It Is Well With My Soul
PeaceTrustAssuranceSuffering
A quiet confession sung from the middle of grief, not after it — tracing God’s nearness to the brokenhearted through waters that don’t sweep over, fire that doesn’t consume, and floods that become the very place His name is learned, resolving in a whisper that was never about the hurt being over: it is well with my soul.
"Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you."
A song for the road you're on.

It Is Well With My Soul Dirt Road Gospel Music DirtRoadGospelMusic.com [Verse 1] I got the call on a Sunday morning The kind that drops you to your knees The house went silent, the world kept turning And I couldn't find the air to breathe But You stay close to the brokenhearted You come running when the spirit breaks I was crushed down low, but I wasn't abandoned You were holding what I couldn't take [Chorus] When peace like a river runs gentle and slow Or sorrow rolls in like the tide Whatever You send, You have taught me to know It is well, it is well with my soul [Verse 2] When I pass through the waters, You will be with me The rivers won't drag me below When I walk through the fire, I will not be burned 'Cause You never let go of Your own Every flood that I feared would be the end of me Became the place I learned Your name You don't promise the storm won't find me You promise You'll stand in the rain [Chorus] When peace like a river runs gentle and slow Or sorrow rolls in like the tide Whatever You send, You have taught me to know It is well, it is well with my soul [Bridge] Close... You are close to the brokenhearted Near... when the night comes to stay I don't sing this because the hurt is over I sing it because You never walked away [Final Chorus] When peace like a river runs gentle and slow Or sorrow rolls in like the tide Whatever You send, You have taught me to know It is well, it is well with my soul [Outro] It is well... it is well... with my soul
