And nothing can separate you from that love.It Is Well With My Soul chords by Misc Praise Songs. He has already done all he can, by taking your sins away, not because we deserve it, but because of his love. Because as chaotic as life gets, He has things under control. And because of this you never need to be afraid. But the remarkable thing is, when you really know Christ you have the blessed assurance that you’re never really alone. Sometimes you will feel alone, sometimes you will feel afraid. In life, sometimes things can get chaotic. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid. Peace I leave with you my peace I give you. But this is all peace as the world gives.These things might bring some temporary relaxation, but they don’t bring peace to the soul. Others say that seeing therapists will do the trick. Some say that listening to light music can bring peace to you. If you go to a store, you’ll see them sell aromatherapy candles and shampoo and soap that are supposed to bring peace to you. Banks and insurance companies say that having money, that’s what brings you peace and security. People in the world look everywhere for peace. How could a man who lost his son, lost his business, and lost his four daughters possibly say that things were well with his soul? But when things are bad, can you say the same words that Spafford wrote here? "Whatever my lot, it is well with my soul?" It’s easy to say that you have faith in God when things are good. Sometimes things happen that in a million years you can never explain. One minute you might be surrounded by your loved ones. Sometimes you make plans for your life, and the plans go up in flames. You can see a photo of the original manuscript by clicking on the image to the right. It was then that Spafford wrote the words to a poem, which became this hymn. He pointed out the exact location that his daughters lost their lives, as they sailed past it. While he was halfway across the Atlantic, the captain called him to the bridge.

Spafford soon sailed across the Atlantic to join his grieving wife in Europe. They lost their lives when the ship went down. The ship that Horatio Spafford’s family was on was struck by another ship. He would take the next ship and join them in Europe.Ī few days later, Horatio Spafford received a telegram. So he sent his wife and his daughters on ahead, while he went back to take care of the sale of his property. Right before the ship was to set sail, Spafford found out that one of the sales of his property had fallen through. From there, they would move to Jerusalem. He arranged to sell what was left of his property, and he bought tickets for himself, his wife, and his four daughters on a ship to take them to Europe. Spafford decided to make a new start, and to move his family overseas.

Worse, Horatio Spafford’s son had died of scarlet fever at the age of 4 just prior to the Chicago Fire. In 1871, the Great Chicago Fire happened …one of the greatest disasters of their time, similar to how Hurricane Katrina, the Asian Tsunami, and the earthquake in Japan are disasters of our time. Horatio Spafford was a successful businessman who lived in Chicago back in 1828-1888.

Is nailed to the cross, and I bear it no more, My sin, oh, the bliss of this glorious thought! That Christ has regarded my helpless estate, Though Satan should buffet, though trials should come, Whatever my lot, Thou has taught me to say, When peace, like a river, attendeth my way,
