Rooted In Christ presents the official video of the classic hymn ‘It Is Well With My Soul’ in English, Spanish, Ukrainian, and Russian.
The hymn is an inspiration to generations of Christians all over the world and what joy to listen to a song that is uniting people in 4 languages today.
‘It Is Well With My Soul’ is a hymn penned by hymnist Horatio Spafford and composed by Philip Bliss. It was written after traumatic events in Spafford’s life- the death of his four-year-old son and the Great Chicago Fire of 1871, which ruined him financially.
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
He sent his family to England with his family as he was delayed on business, while crossing the Atlantic Ocean, the ship sank rapidly after a collision with a sea vessel which caused all four of Spafford’s daughters to die, and only his wife Anna survived.
It is well
With my soul
It is well, it is well with my soul
This hymn reminds us of the importance of surrendering everything to Jesus Christ and remaining calm despite losing everything in life.
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
Today, as Russia and Ukraine are at war, and the whole of humanity is suffering due to covid and economic pressures, these talented singers are uniting everyone through a classical hymn that reassures us God is in control of everything and ‘It is Well’ with our souls.
