God Is With Us

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.

He Has Saved Us

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.

It is well, it is well with my soul!

Heaven Awaits Us

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!

It Is Well With My Soul!
