Representative Text

Tho’ joys like the sunshine illumine the way,
And lightly thy care may dispel,
Is Jesus thy hope and thy anchor today?
Is it well with thy soul, is it well?
Is it well,
With thy soul,
Is it well,
Is it well with thy soul?

Say, where is thy refuge for years that shall come?
And what of thy faith canst thou tell?
O where is thy treasure, thy heart and thy home?
Is it well with thy soul, is it well?
Is it well,
With thy soul,
Is it well,
Is it well with thy soul?

When storms of affliction around thee may fall,
And billows like mountains may roll,
O hast thou a trust that is greater than all?
Is it well with thy soul, is it well?
Is it well,
With thy soul,
Is it well,
Is it well with thy soul?

If Christ, thy Redeemer, is precious to thee,
And makes thee in safety to dwell,
Whatever thy cares or temptations may be,
Praise the Lord! with thy soul it is well.
It is well,
With thy soul,
It is well,
It is well with my soul!
