lyrics of it is well with my soul hillsong

Almost a month on from the Brisbane/Queensland floods, in which we and our community were so personally embroiled, can I say “It is well with my soul”?

In fact, soaring! All things considered, things were well with my soul.įast forward 18 months, and I’m not so sure I can say that. In that context and at that time, my spirit found itself singing along. The absolute highlight was a near-acapella rendition of the original version by Alison Krauss, backed by folk-country singers, The Whites. We went to the Grand Ole Opry – as you do. I recall being in Nashville in mid 2009 for a family reunion of Dale’s U.S. This is a song that has wonderful memories for me. Have a listen to the song (recording is from Hillsong, I’m sure the visuals are not, but it gives you the lyrics) … It’s just that I struggle to sing it right now. I commend Morgan, Fielding and Hillsong for what they are seeking to do with this song. This is NOT a piece of Hillsong-bagging, let me be clear! I’m in no way questioning the writers’ or Hillsongs’ intentions. I hasten to add that this is all for the purpose of raising funds for the official Queensland government flood-relief appeal. Their addition is consistent musically and theologically with the original. This version has an extra chorus (a bridge really) written by Reuben Morgan and Ben Fielding from Hillsong Church. You see, I’ve just listened to a new recording of the classic American folk hymn: It is well with my soul.
