Historical Origins of the Hymn & the Tune
lyrics
When sorrows like sea billows roll;
Whatever my lot, Thou hast taught me to say,
It is well, it is well with my soul.
o Refrain:
It is well with my soul,
It is well, it is well with my soul.
It is well with my soul,
It is well, it is well with my soul.
2.
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.
Let this blest assurance control,
That Christ hath regarded my helpless estate,
And hath shed His own blood for my soul.
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!
4.
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.
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.
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!
6.
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.
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" is a hymn penned by
hymnist Horatio Spafford and composed by Philip Bliss.
First published in Gospel Songs No. 2 by Ira Sankey and
Bliss (1876), it is possibly the most influential and enduring in the Bliss
repertoire and is often taken as a choral model, appearing in hymnals of a wide
variety of Christian fellowships.
This hymn was written after traumatic events in Spafford's life.
The first two were the death of his four-year-old son and the Great Chicago Fire of 1871, which ruined
him financially (he had been a successful lawyer and had invested significantly
in property in the area of Chicago that was extensively damaged by the great
fire). His business interests were further hit by the economic downturn of
1873, at which time he had planned to travel to Europe with his family on
the SS Ville du Havre. In a late change of
plan, he sent the family ahead while he was delayed on business concerning
zoning problems following the Great Chicago Fire. While crossing the Atlantic Ocean,
the ship sank rapidly after a collision with a sea vessel, the Loch Earn,
and all four of Spafford's daughters died. His wife Anna survived and sent him
the now famous telegram, "Saved alone …". Shortly afterwards, as
Spafford traveled to meet his grieving wife, he was inspired to write these
words as his ship passed near where his daughters had died. Bliss called
his tune Ville du Havre, from the name of the stricken vesshttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/It_Is_Well_with_My_Soulel.
In November, 1873, Horatio Spafford sent his
wife and four daughters on the French ship Ville du Havre from their home in Chicago to a vacation in France,
planning to set out a few days later himself. Somewhere in the Atlantic, the Ville du Havre collided with a British ship coming the other way, and
sank in just 12 minutes. Of his family, only Spafford’s wife survived. Spafford
took the next boat over, and as he passed the spot where the ship went down, began
to write, “When peace like a river attendeth my way, when sorrows like sea
billows roll,” and continued until he had the text, “It is well with my soul.”
His good friend, Philip Bliss, composed the tune for his words, naming it after
the ship, VILLE DU HAVRE. In this hymn, Spafford has given all of us words of
comfort and assurance in times of physical and spiritual crisis, paraphrasing
those familiar words of Julian of Norwich: “And all shall be well, and all
shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.”
