It Is Well With My Soul

Oh, my life is filled with white-hot anxiety, Though I think I wear it very well, I still worry bout' what people might think of me if they ever saw me past my outer shell. Believe me, I know how to worry. I've chewed my fingernails to the bone. Oh, I've got my share of problems Still it is well with my soul Sometimes I wrestle with my conscience Still it is well with my soul Lord, I think about all that you've done for me. Lord, I think about it all the time. But sometimes a ghost from the past starts really haunting me, sticking those awful feelings in my mind. I won't let it get to me, no. I ain't walking down that old, dark road. Oh, I've got my share of problems Still it is well with my soul Don't always know just how to solve them Still it is well with my soul Since I've been given true forgiveness And it is well with my soul I'll be about my father's business And it is well with my soul In my soul I can see clearly In my soul Through the darkness surrounding me Once you've tasted and seen Then you'll know what I mean There ain't nothing gonna keep me down, so...get up... Oh, I've got my share of problems Still it is well with my soul Don't always know just how to solve them Still it is well with my soul Sometimes I wrestle with my conscience Still it is well with my soul Still I know that I've got true forgiveness And it is well with my soul
