When Peace, Like A River
Lyrics
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.
Verse 2
It Is Well With My Soul,
It Is Well, It Is Well With My Soul.
Verse 3
Though Satan Should Buffet, Though Trials Should Come,
Let This Blest Assurance Control,
That Christ Hath Regarded My Helpless Estate,
And Hath Shed His Own Blood For My Soul.
Verse 4
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!
Verse 5
For Me, Be It Christ, Be It Christ Hence To Live:
If Jordan Above Me Shall Roll,
No Pang Shall Be Mine, For In Death As In Life
Thou Wilt Whisper Thy Peace To My Soul.
Verse 6
But, Lord, ’Tis For Thee, For Thy Coming We Wait,
The Sky, Not The Grave, Is Our Goal;
Oh, Trump Of The Angel! Oh, Voice Of The Lord!
Blessed Hope, Blessed Rest Of My Soul!
