"IT IS WELL WITH MY SOUL" - I think this song is one of most beautiful Christian Hymns.
More amazing is the author's life history when he wrote this words.
He was able to praise the Lord in a great suffering moment in his life.
Praise God.

Thank you for this. It is one that my mom chose to be sang at her going home celebration. It was well with her soul and thank God today, it's well with mines also.

This was my grandmother's favorite hymn.

Being a mother who lost her first-born son after a very long battle when he was 15, I can certainly relate to the strength and faith and love for God that it takes to feel the way he did when he wrote this song.

Its portuguese version (not translation) is very beautiful too.
When in english say: "It is well, it is well, with my soul...." (refrain)
In portuguese, the refrain says: "Sou feliz, sou feliz. Com Jesus, com Jesus. Sou feliz com Jesus, meu Senhor". (I am happy, I am happy. With Jesus, with Jesus. I am Happy, with Jesus my Lord)
This song is inspired and blessed in any language.
