This hymn’s lyrics were written by Horatio Spafford after multiple traumatic events in his life. The first happened in 1871, when his four year old son died. The second was caused by the Great Chicago Fire, which ruined him financially after having been a successful lawyer who had significant investments in property damaged by the fire. In 1873, he had planned to travel to Europe with his family, but was delayed on business due to zoning problems following the fire. He sent his family ahead on a different ship. While his family was crossing the Atlantic without him, the ship the family was on sunk rapidly after a collision with another sea vessel and all four of Spafford’s daughters died. His wife Anna survived and sent him a telegram that said, “Saved alone…”. Shortly after receiving the telegram he traveled to meet his grieving wife and was inspired to write the words to this song as his ship passed over the location where his duaghters had been lost at sea.

As I worked on this arrangement, I tried to include the sound of the ocean, a grieving family, and the sense of hope in God and life after we have passed on. The message that “All is Well” is a message we all need to remember at many times throughout our life on this earth. This is written as a piano solo, but I included the lyrics to add more meaning when you play and as an option someone could sing to.

 Tune Name: Ville du havre Difficulty Level: M Description: It Is Well With My Soul from A Trusting Heart (70/2157L) by Marianne Kim. Piano solo. Prelude. Number of Pages: 5 Format: PDF Church hymnal sheet music for the beautiful old song that begins, "When peace like a river attendeth my way." That song is called "It Is Well With My Soul." On this page find lead sheets, 4-part vocals, and piano arrangements in four keys. The piano arrangement:Please scroll down the page for the sheet music PDF links. I will not say that the piano arrangement is easy... it is actually rather full of clusters of right-hand chords, and left hand broken tenths. However, when I read the 4-part harmony that is standard in most hymnals (see that arrangement below), I can see the chords, and I play it with many of the embellishments seen in the video above. This vocal version is the same traditional arrangement that you will find in most old hymnals. Please scroll down the page for the sheet music PDF links. Lead sheets for guitar or making your own arrangementsPlease scroll down the page for the sheet music PDF links. In a few of the measures, there are very fast chord changes. This is an attempt on my part to reflect what happens in the 4 part harmony arrangement. Play through it yourself, and you may well decide that there is no need for any of those fast chord changes! The lyricsThe only verses I have ever sung are verses 1, 2, 3, and 6. I know those lyrics well and treasure them. Verses 4 and 5 are completely new to me, but I include them here, as they seem original to the hymn.

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. Refrain: It is well (it is well) with my soul (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. Refrain 3. 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! Refrain 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. Refrain 5. 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! Refrain 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.
