Make it well with my soul
Don't let me face this loneliness alone
Make it well with my soul
I need the peace that only heaven knows
Jesus, could you please
Just sit and cry with me 'til I can sing
'Til I can sing
It is well with my soul
It is well with my soul
Whatever my life, You are still my God
It is well, it is well with my soul
Make it well with my soul
When the storm is raging, please don't let me go
Oh, voice that calms the sea
Keep whispering to me so I can sing
So I can sing
It is well with my soul
It is well with my soul
Whatever my life, You are still my God
It is well, it is well with my soul
Make it well with my soul
Whoa-whoa-whoa
Make it well with my soul
Make it well with my soul
Make it well with my soul
Keep this heart from hardening like stone
Show me through the pain
There's reason still to praise so I can sing
So I can sing
It is well with my soul
It is well with my soul
Whatever my life, You are still my God
Oh, whatever my life, You are still my God
Oh, whatever my life, You are still my God
It is well, it is well with my soul
Don't let me face this loneliness alone
Make it well with my soul
I need the peace that only heaven knows
Jesus, could you please
Just sit and cry with me 'til I can sing
'Til I can sing
It is well with my soul
It is well with my soul
Whatever my life, You are still my God
It is well, it is well with my soul
Make it well with my soul
When the storm is raging, please don't let me go
Oh, voice that calms the sea
Keep whispering to me so I can sing
So I can sing
It is well with my soul
It is well with my soul
Whatever my life, You are still my God
It is well, it is well with my soul
Make it well with my soul
Whoa-whoa-whoa
Make it well with my soul
Make it well with my soul
Make it well with my soul
Keep this heart from hardening like stone
Show me through the pain
There's reason still to praise so I can sing
So I can sing
It is well with my soul
It is well with my soul
Whatever my life, You are still my God
Oh, whatever my life, You are still my God
Oh, whatever my life, You are still my God
It is well, it is well with my soul
