Grant, Amy - It Is Well With My Soul / The River's Gonna Keep On Rolling Lyrics
When peace, like a river, attendeth my way
When sorrows like sea billows roll
Whatever my lot, Thou has taught me to say
It is well, it is well, with my soul
From the bottom of your heart
And believe that it's the truest thing you've known
And even if you never break the promises you make
The river's gonna keep on rollin' on
And if you haven't got a dollar
Not a penny to your name
Somebody's gonna miss you when you're gone
And even if you never find just a little piece of mind
The river's gonna keep on rollin' on
Keep on rollin' to the ocean
Keep on rollin' to the sea
Keep on rollin' 'till the love we need
Washes over you and me
God's love is like a river
At every turn and every bend
And faith in Him will turn your heart around
'Cause even though we sin, there's forgiveness in the end
And the river's gonna keep on rollin' on
Keep on rollin' to the ocean
Keep on rollin' to the sea
Keep on rollin' 'till the love we need
Washes over you and me
Keep on rollin' 'till the love we need
Washes over you and me
It is well, with my soul
It is well, it is well, with my soul

My sympathies, Sean. He's in the best place there is. So rejoice. God bless you too. And thanks for uploading this beautiful song! I love Amy's music.
The confession of "It is well with my soul' relates to the Old Testament record of a woman's faith in God after her son died, and she was asked why she sought the prophet while on her journey to ask the prophet to come and raise her son from the dead. Its all about the confession and trust in God.
If you haven't got a dollar, not a penny to your name, somebody's gonna miss you when you're gone... wait WHAT????
My son, Michael loved Amy Grant's music, her voice, the wording, arrangements. I want to have this played at his memorial service on May 24th, 2015.
This hymn was written after traumatic events in Spafford’s life. The first was the death of their only son from Scarlet Fever in 1870. Second was the 1871 Great Chicago Fire which ruined him financially (he had been a successful lawyer and had invested significantly in property in the area of Chicago which was decimated 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, 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.
Sean - my heart goes out to you about your brother. May you find God as near to you in grief as the air in your lungs
