My dad specifically requested this song be sung for his funeral, which occurred a couple months ago. Now I can't hear it without thinking of him. I loved this music before. Now it's a memorial to my Heavenly Father and my earthly father.
During the period of the global Coronavirus pandemic I went on a mission, and this song was part of my preparation to serve the Lord, this song brought a lot of peace to my heart
I've listened to this song and the story, it stuck with me, I didn't know why, after having two of my children murdered a year and three months apart having one son left, no justice here on earth, it's been eight years for my youngest son and seven years for my oldest and only daughter, God with much Grace and Mercy has brought me to this point I can say it is well with my soul despite the pain I'll always have until he calls me home. He's a good and just God every man must go through him.
My heart aches for your loss. Having just lost my son 34 days ago, makes me think of how much easier it has been, for me, as I was with hm for his final hugs.I is Well, with my soul. Then the other anthem, 'Be Strong In the Lord", is the other hymn that is giving me strength and courage, to get up and move through my daily activities.
Beverly, I cannot begin to know your pain and anguish. I am amazed by your strength, similar to my amazement with the composer of this hymn who lost his four daughters, which was the catalyst for this hymn. God bless you!
such is the power of this inspired him, to comfort all of us, going through pain and doubt, and...when you are fortunate to hear this, it does just that. the Mormons are an inspiration here, in this singing.
I am sure that I was led to this song by Angels. I have listened to it before, but tonight listening I am moved the most. Having two family members pass on, so close in time, grieving feels so heavy, but listening to this beautiful hymn sung by one of my favorite choirs is a Godsend. And I am now told by God and Angels..."we are here, we are always here, you don't have to hold your grief alone, we are here, and when you cannot stand, we shall carry you, we are here for you and All."
So Beautiful. Your testimony has inspire me to share mine. I could never understand how this man could say it was well with his soul, until tonight. I have lost my parents, close family members ,friends , my only sister and 11 months ago , I lost my dearly beloved husband after almost 53 1/2 years of marriage. But through his death, and his example of having a close relationship with God, I began a journey to get a clearer picture of the Face and Heart of of God, whose Love for me is incomprehensible! God has shown me in countless ways, that He cares so deeply, so individually, so personally, and so unconditionally for me and my disabled daughter, who lives with me. The icing on the cake is that God has promised He will come back to earth again, and take us all Home to live with Him and our loved ones forevermore. Yes, it is finally Well with My Soul, because I have experienced the Unfathomable Love of God and I Love Him back with all my Heart and Soul. He has shaken me into His Reality through countless life-saving miracles this year. My heart and soul are absolutely full of Gratitude and Love Overflowing for Him. And again, I say: Yes, It is Well with my Soul.
I absolutely love this hymn!❤. My anxiety and depression have taken a toll on me lately! I tend to create my own problems! Anyhow listening to this has helped ease me back to sleep...at least tonight! Thank you choir and more so my dear Lord and Savior! Love you❤
We get a close-up of the woman at 4:20 but I know that many members of the choir are also crying at this point in the song, myself included. No matter how many times we did this piece it remained a very emotional number to perform and stay detached enough to be able to sing through the feelings it generates. There were always sniffles when it ended.
SingerGuy59 I’m sooo pleased Our Kind Heavenly Father allowed me to meet Dr. Wilberg and request this arrangement be commissioned in honor of my Beloved Pastor. The first time Dr. Wilberg sent me the rough draft I was balling my eyes out!! THANK YOU to all of your beautiful voices coming together to create such angelic singing in Praise unto our God!! Even tho we are going through this trying time in our World right now, it IS well!! Blessings to you all!!! 🙏🏽
Dion L. SingerGuy59 / Dion L. - Thank you both so much for your parts in bringing this masterpiece together! This unique combination of music and message truly touches my soul each time I listen to it. I am in particular need of having my sins, not in part but in whole, nailed to the cross, and I am eternally grateful for my Savior who has graciously made it possible for it to be well with my soul!
I am so comforted by this hymn right now. My brother just died and I know we will see each other again as he has gone to be with the Lord. It is well with my soul.
As a child I listened to the choir after going to bed. I listened to Richard Evans and the spoken word as part of the beautiful experience drawing my sad.heart up to God for my new dad was always drunk. I was frightened of the angry sounds. He finally received help, God bless 12 step programs, and he and my precious mother are long gone, I am 83 now, but still praise and thank God for the healing wonderful ministry of your heavenly music I can still lie in bed, in the dark and know God is near as I listen. God bless every soul that is part of your gift from God to the world.
The story told and the song played at my brother's memorial service today. My mom requested it as she is burying her second child. It is well with our souls because we know that families are forever.
Family sang it to us when my husband was in ICU with covid and a brain tumor. Hearing the words of the song and feeling the music brought a sense of holiness and peace as we prepared for his passing. Then it was sung last week at my husband's funeral. I feel God's reassurance every time I hear this music. Yes, through Jesus Christ, it is well with my soul!
I’m an atheist but having studied music, I have always loved sacred music. This is definitely one of my favourite hymns. Knowing the inspiration behind it, we can all relate to it regardless of faith.
I heard this version performed by an honor choir of high school students and I cried through the whole thing. "My sin, not in part, but the whole, is nailed to the cross, and I bear it no more, praise the Lord! Praise the Lord!" Afterward I had to come find the song on UA-cam. Beautiful song!
I just lost my mom in a tragic car accident. I miss her dearly, but I know it was well with her soul. She accepted the Lord Jesus Christ as her personal Savior from sin.
I lost my beloved dog of 12 years today. Man I was a mess. This in someway soothes my soul. I can imagine that Buddy and Dad are in heaven free of pain and suffering. This brings me peace…❤
"My sin, not in part, but in whole, is nailed to the cross and I bear it no more." Those words _always_ bring tears to my eyes. Such a powerful lyric in an absolutely beautiful setting.
When I see the singers crying I just know what they are singing is true...they know it and God knows it. The spirit will visit us and testify to us of the Christ.
They just shut off my grandfathers oxygen. Because of COVID I was not allowed to be with him. Said a prayer and listened to this song. He will be missed. I’m a better man today because of his influence. I love you grandpa!
When I was a little boy in the 50's I wanted to sing in the Choir. It was so amazing. Now I am 70 and still would love to sing with this amazing choir. They have blessed us with so many amazing arrangements of music for which I want to say Thank You!
When I was a child, this song was always sang by members of the Methodist Church when necrological services happen. Back then, I don't belong to any Church, but I admired the song. I asked for a copy from the Pastor. I was in tears when I realized the profound meaning of the song. It was then that I realized why they always sang it every necrological service. When I learned about the Atonement, it was then that I loved the song. Years after I experienced heartbreaking life challenges- death of loved ones, persecution, and many others blows in life. With faith in the Lord Jesus Christ I know everything will be alright. It is well with my soul!
What is a necrological service? I have never heard of that. I searched it on my browser but cannot seem to find an answer. I love this hymn so much too
This song is so full of spirit, sadness, and joy! “Praise the Lord, praise the Lord of my soul!” Beautiful, beautiful message and music. This song brings so much hope! Bless you all! God loves you!!
The song is so comforting a time like this when the whole world is threatened by the darkest cloud of death, suffering, uncertainty,lack of jobs,threatening economy ,God knows what next ,l rise up my eyes unto heavens and say it is well.
Never has a hymn brought so much peace to me as I struggle through my health trials. Regardless of my health and pain the Spirit has spoken to me. It is well with my soul!
"It is well with my soul". This doesn't mean that we will not feel sorrow because of our trust in God. But what it does mean when we say "it is well with my soul" is that we trust Him and know that this earthly life, while important, is but a blip on the radar of our eternal existence, and that there is so much more that He has to offer us. Pains, sorrows, and afflictions cannot undo what the Savior has done for us, because he took those upon himself and only asks that we call upon the Father in His name, as he called upon His Father for strength and courage to not only endure this life, but to thrive.
I could listen to that song 10K times and not get tired of it. There is a mighty spirit with it. "My sin, not in part, but the whole, Is nailed to the cross, and I bear it no more. Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, O my soul!"
I am so glad this beautiful hymn will be in our new hymn book. I was so hoping it would. I love this choir version, and it stays with me all day and reminds me that it IS well with my soul.
Many an individual, including me, have felt the loving hand of God on their shoulder as they sang this wonderful old hymn. Life is always the bitter with the sweet. What more could we want? It is well with my soul.
Often I fail to recognize that while the choir sings together, they sing as individuals. I think about each individual singer singing this hymn, and how they each feel and each identify with it in relation to each of their unique struggles. I don't believe they sing passively as a collective choir, but I feel that they actively and from the heart express their earnest ponderings.
While that is true, it's much more like one large being, especially in the last bits of these kind of songs. Somewhere within the music, you all meld together and become one musical force, unstoppable. It's pretty incredible actually when you experience it first hand (I've sung this specific song and it really happens in this one). While you are separate individuals, you rely on each other to create the sound the audience hears.
Beautiful song with a powerful message! I love the close-up of the choir member with tears on her cheeks. That is how I feel...the glorious message of a personal Savior, and the hope He brings touches our souls in a personal way. Despite all the chaos in the world today, through Him it can be eternally 'well with our souls.'
When I was a Protestant, they use to sing this song and, it was my favorite one too. I’m so glad that this in the hymn book. It really brings joy and reminds me of the grace of the Son, Jesus Christ
Peace be knowing that while you are asleep and thus most vulnerable, you needn’t worry since the lord is in control! At least that’s what this hymn makes me feel like at night
I have the privilege of knowing several of these singers personally. It is touching watching this video and knowing what is behind it for some of them personally - severe health challenges, debilitating anxiety and depression, and the struggles of work, life, and family. Thanks to each of you for your reminder to all of us that it can be well with our soul no matter what happens.
I am so touched by this song and seeing all those people. In my other public reaction I already mentioned my own health problems, and when I see all those people singing and creating the most beautiful music; I see that divine touch, praying that the presence of God will be and stay in our lives forever; let all our soles be well in His presence. God bless you all.
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. Refrain: It is well with my soul, It is well, it is well with my soul. Though Satan should buffet, though trials should come, Let this blest assurance control, That Christ hath regarded my helpless estate, And hath shed His own blood for my soul. My sin-oh, the bliss of this glorious thought!- My sin, not in part but the whole, Is nailed to the cross, and I bear it no more, Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, O my soul! For me, be it Christ, be it Christ hence to live: If Jordan above me shall roll, No pang shall be mine, for in death as in life Thou wilt whisper Thy peace to my soul. But, Lord, ’tis for Thee, for Thy coming we wait, The sky, not the grave, is our goal; Oh, trump of the angel! Oh, voice of the Lord! Blessed hope, blessed rest of my soul! And Lord, haste the day when the faith shall be sight, The clouds be rolled back as a scroll; The trump shall resound, and the Lord shall descend, Even so, it is well with my soul.
“YES...”MY BROTHER...”(J O B )”...HEARD THIS...SONG...”(WORD)...AND...CONFESSED...”(IT IS ...WELL...WITH...M Y ...SOUL...(SELAH AND AMEN)”!!!💕🙏💕🌈🌅🦋🗝🤗🙏💕👍
Some of the most beautiful words even penned in Christendom. The writer was Job made flesh. God bless the choir for their rendition. This hymn has comforted me through darkness and I am sure it has done the same for others.
My church sang this after communion service and some people had tears in their eyes. I felt like crying too. The presence of God must have been in His Holy Sanctuary!
Just so beautiful. I am having tears of joy again and again. I have survived a cerebral bleeding and have troubles with walking and controlling my leg. I trust our LORD to be fully restored, whatever His mighty plan with my life will be.., it is well with my soul; because I know Him and know he loves me and has nailled ALL my many sins to the cross. All praise to the ever living God; everlasting love.
The tears! What a wonderful expression of the power of the orchestra, the choir and the hymn itself, in praise of our God The Father....Simply beautiful. I am blessed to be part of this Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.
I’m full of tears 😭 the Holy Spirit is alive 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 everything I’ve gone through proves I will be okay , I have peace in my soul knowing that God loves ❤me so much 🙏🏽
So, back in my senior year of high school, we played a band arrangement of this beautiful hymn. We would play it with so much passion even our director would cry onstage, and i was known not to be able to finish the piece because i was crying too hard. Now, I’ve never been particularly religious, on and off church goer my whole life, but i recently got the pleasure of staying in coast guard boot camp for an extra 3 months due to a stress fracture. I can say without a doubt that it was the hardest thing i’ve ever done, staying there for a total of 5 months, but what really got me through it was sunday mass. Of course, every service we would sing hymns from the hymnal and i would always find some comfort in them. One day though, i was just kind of messing around, flipping through the book, and for whatever reason decided to stop. I looked down, and there it was, It Is Well With My Soul. It was truly one of the most profound moments of my life. It made me realize that I was going to be OK. I thank God every day that He brought me to that page.
A reminder that things will get better and help us through these discouraging times. Im grateful for the blessing of music, but this Phillip P Bliss tune opens my heart and tearducts. It humbles me and gives me much hope that all is well with my soul.
Only God can create a pure heart, through trials that are prescribed for our personal healing. Only God could see past our suffering to the important task of purifying of our soul. Thank you God Jesus ❤🙏❤️
The lady crying 😢 in the very end is amazing. She could feel exactly what I feel when I listen to them. Angels singing praises to the Lord and helping us to be closer to Christ. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻😍😍😍
To this day, this arrangement is in my top 3 favorites that we have sung in the Choir. So full of hope and love from our Savior, that even in our darkest depths of despair, we can still find his love and assurance of peace.
This reminds us, that in times like these unprecedented and uncertainty, we can find peace and comfort by simply listening to this song! The eyes of the performers and their wonderful voices define the word, peace. Truly, it is well with my soul.
Esse hino foi tocado na Conferência em que fui chamado Presidente de Estaca. Não posso expressar a paz que me trouxe naquele momento.Pude sentir que estava tudo bem e que tudo ficaria bem. Amo o Salvador e como Ele se manifesta em nossas vidas através da música, especialmente nos momentos que mais precisamos. Por mais que não consigamos ver claramente nosso futuro se entregamos nossa vida nas mãos do Senhor podemos ter a certeza de que tudo estará bem. ❤
There were a lot of glistening eyes in the choir and orchestra during this performance of this angelic hymn, just as there are many glistening eyes like mine watching it. Thank the Lord for this.
How lovely our Lord is that he forgive our sins and never remember them. Isaiah 43:25 “I-yes, I alone-will blot out your sins for my own sake and will never think of them again.
I sang this for Utah’s honor choir in January 2023 and I sobbed.
And I've sobbed listening to this.
My dad specifically requested this song be sung for his funeral, which occurred a couple months ago. Now I can't hear it without thinking of him. I loved this music before. Now it's a memorial to my Heavenly Father and my earthly father.
God bless you, I wish I played this at my Dad's funeral
I am going to have it played at my funeral some day.
I got same feelings too thou,the lord is our strength 😮
My father did exactly the same. It has deeply affected the family. It's a living testimony.
During the period of the global Coronavirus pandemic I went on a mission, and this song was part of my preparation to serve the Lord, this song brought a lot of peace to my heart
I've listened to this song and the story, it stuck with me, I didn't know why, after having two of my children murdered a year and three months apart having one son left, no justice here on earth, it's been eight years for my youngest son and seven years for my oldest and only daughter, God with much Grace and Mercy has brought me to this point I can say it is well with my soul despite the pain I'll always have until he calls me home. He's a good and just God every man must go through him.
I don't know you, but thank you and bless you for your thoughts shared here.
My heart aches for your loss. Having just lost my son 34 days ago, makes me think of how much easier it has been, for me, as I was with hm for his final hugs.I is Well, with my soul.

So Beautiful. Your testimony has inspire me to share mine.

Yes, it is finally Well with My Soul, because I have experienced the Unfathomable Love of God and I Love Him back with all my Heart and Soul.

No matter what happens, I Know that it's well with my soul because God took all of my sins on the cross.
When you see actual tears in the eyes of the performers then you know that God’s spirit had dwelt there celebrating the moment. Amen. ❤️

Now I know why my mother, who passed away on 12/28/24, wanted this shared at her memorial service. I've decided to include in my final wishes.
Beautiful. May Jesus bless you and your loved ones to whoever maybe reading this.
May Jesus bless you too.
May Jesus bless you brother.

Simply the most profound and powerful consideration of humanity.

Bring me to tears it is well with my soul. Thank you for using your lovely voices to bless lives❤️
GOD never said we wouldn’t have trials, pain or loss, but HE would be with us through them!
This Hymn has never meant more to me than now during these dark times of fear, death and uncertainty.
Sure right my dear
Kelly you are absolutely correct who knows when life will get back to normal if ever with gods will we will get thru this keep well and safe ❤️🇬🇧🇬🇧
Only death is certain in life. All the more reason to have no fear.
@@messedup5424 you just nailed it.
It won't be back to normal. This is the way things were prophesied to go. Never back to normal, but we will see a better and brighter day.
When I see the singers crying I just know what they are singing is true...they know it and God knows it. The spirit will visit us and testify to us of the Christ.
❤❤❤ from indonesia
I’m not even a Mormon and I can’t get enough of their work 😭
Their meetings and doctrine is just as beautiful as their music....even more so inside the temples.
Good music is good music
Same
The song per se is not "Mormon". How it came to be is tragic but inspirational, look its history up.
the Choir is for everyone!
They just shut off my grandfathers oxygen. Because of COVID I was not allowed to be with him. Said a prayer and listened to this song.
He will be missed. I’m a better man today because of his influence.
I love you grandpa!
We are all, pretty much, a direct result of the way our parents reared us to be
My brother just died , when i went to Church for the Sunday service the choir sang this song, I cried till the end of the song so touching
When I was a little boy in the 50's I wanted to sing in the Choir. It was so amazing. Now I am 70 and still would love to sing with this amazing choir. They have blessed us with so many amazing arrangements of music for which I want to say Thank You!

@@wendywarne601 Just a fancy way of saying "funeral service". Nobody uses such terminology.
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
I don’t understand my life but it’s well with my soul 😢
This song is so full of spirit, sadness, and joy! “Praise the Lord, praise the Lord of my soul!” Beautiful, beautiful message and music. This song brings so much hope! Bless you all! God loves you!!

The backstory to this song is unreal! Wow!
The Mormon Tabernacle Choir also has an amazing narrative story on this channel about that and this song's story. It is absolutely worth checking out.
I could listen to that song 10K times and not get tired of it. There is a mighty spirit with it. "My sin, not in part, but the whole, Is nailed to the cross, and I bear it no more. Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, O my soul!"

i watched and listen to this song many times i love it thanks a lot i i was methodist now i change to LATER DAY SAINT CHURCH i love it
They sound like actual angels. This fills my soul.
We were chosen to know and hear this great Hymn. So at the second arrival you can sing along with Heavenly Angels for His greatest glorious grace
One of the most beautiful and uplifting hymns ever written! Thank you, God!
It's truly well with your soul when you turn to the Lord for the forgiveness of your sins in true repentance.! Find rest for your soul in Him alone.!
This is one of my favorite church song that really gives me strength in times of struggles in my life. I feel the Holy Spirit when I played this song.
I love Jesus ❤
Me too!
This Hymn was sung at my friend's Theresa's funeral who passed away on 1 July 2023

That's what makes this choir so outstanding
While that is true, it's much more like one large being, especially in the last bits of these kind of songs. Somewhere within the music, you all meld together and become one musical force, unstoppable. It's pretty incredible actually when you experience it first hand (I've sung this specific song and it really happens in this one). While you are separate individuals, you rely on each other to create the sound the audience hears.
And that’s why they’re such a good choir.
My Peace I leave you and I took Jesus at his Word.
Beautiful song with a powerful message! I love the close-up of the choir member with tears on her cheeks. That is how I feel...the glorious message of a personal Savior, and the hope He brings touches our souls in a personal way. Despite all the chaos in the world today, through Him it can be eternally 'well with our souls.'
🙏 Declared for a loving God, through our Saviour and Redeemer, Lord, Jesus Christ! ✝️
The tears of the sweet sisters are mine, ...
So deep feelings, so powerful message, so real in it's healing...
Thank you.
I'm a sinner saved by grace and my walk isn't always what it should be, but when I die I hope it is well with my soul.

When I was a Protestant, they use to sing this song and, it was my favorite one too. I’m so glad that this in the hymn book. It really brings joy and reminds me of the grace of the Son, Jesus Christ
I make sure I listen to this piece every night before bed and it’s so comforting, I just feel some come kind of peace before I go to sleep.
Peace be knowing that while you are asleep and thus most vulnerable, you needn’t worry since the lord is in control! At least that’s what this hymn makes me feel like at night
This is one of my favorite hymns, and this rendition brought me to TEARS!! Absolutely stunning, and still applicable to my life!! 🤍
I have the privilege of knowing several of these singers personally. It is touching watching this video and knowing what is behind it for some of them personally - severe health challenges, debilitating anxiety and depression, and the struggles of work, life, and family. Thanks to each of you for your reminder to all of us that it can be well with our soul no matter what happens.
I am so touched by this song and seeing all those people. In my other public reaction I already mentioned my own health problems, and when I see all those people singing and creating the most beautiful music; I see that divine touch, praying that the presence of God will be and stay in our lives forever; let all our soles be well in His presence. God bless you all.

...”and my soul hungered and was fed.” I so needed this. God spoke to me through this song, what a blessing Mack Wilberg is to this world.
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.
Refrain:
It is well with my soul,
It is well, it is well with my soul.
Though Satan should buffet, though trials should come,
Let this blest assurance control,
That Christ hath regarded my helpless estate,
And hath shed His own blood for my soul.
My sin-oh, the bliss of this glorious thought!-
My sin, not in part but the whole,
Is nailed to the cross, and I bear it no more,
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, O my soul!
For me, be it Christ, be it Christ hence to live:
If Jordan above me shall roll,
No pang shall be mine, for in death as in life
Thou wilt whisper Thy peace to my soul.
But, Lord, ’tis for Thee, for Thy coming we wait,
The sky, not the grave, is our goal;
Oh, trump of the angel! Oh, voice of the Lord!
Blessed hope, blessed rest of my soul!
And Lord, haste the day when the faith shall be sight,
The clouds be rolled back as a scroll;
The trump shall resound, and the Lord shall descend,
Even so, it is well with my soul.
“YES...”MY BROTHER...”(J O B )”...HEARD THIS...SONG...”(WORD)...AND...CONFESSED...”(IT IS ...WELL...WITH...M Y ...SOUL...(SELAH AND AMEN)”!!!💕🙏💕🌈🌅🦋🗝🤗🙏💕👍
Thank you!
Wow...That's the first time I've read these words...brought me to tears, thank you for sharing..take care everyone & Trust in the Lord xx
Some of the most beautiful words even penned in Christendom. The writer was Job made flesh. God bless the choir for their rendition.
This hymn has comforted me through darkness and I am sure it has done the same for others.
My church sang this after communion service and some people had tears in their eyes. I felt like crying too. The presence of God must have been in His Holy Sanctuary!
A glimpse of heaven here on Earth. Thank you Lord Jesus for the peace that surpasses all understanding🙏
I'm speechless!!! OUR LORD GOD FOREVER!!!
Just so beautiful. I am having tears of joy again and again. I have survived a cerebral bleeding and have troubles with walking and controlling my leg. I trust our LORD to be fully restored, whatever His mighty plan with my life will be.., it is well with my soul; because I know Him and know he loves me and has nailled ALL my many sins to the cross. All praise to the ever living God; everlasting love.
I will be looking forward to sing this beautiful hymn in our wards and branches.
I lost my mother and she used to sing this beautiful song ,I never heard it sang by any other till now 🙏🎚️🤍gosh I miss her 😢
Soloist sang it at my fathers funeral service. I love the words and it brings such comfort to me. The choirs rendition fills me.
I remember this song when I was 8years old at my father's funeral mass😢😢
When i heard this song i feels god arms
The tears! What a wonderful expression of the power of the orchestra, the choir and the hymn itself, in praise of our God The Father....Simply beautiful. I am blessed to be part of this Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.
Praying for peace for those going through pain.
I’m full of tears 😭 the Holy Spirit is alive 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 everything I’ve gone through proves I will be okay , I have peace in my soul knowing that God loves ❤me so much 🙏🏽
The thought of saying "saved alone, what shall I do" got me in hot tears 😭
It is well with my soul..That christ hath regarded my helpless estate.it is well with my soul ..amen. from the UK.
I admire the Mormons very much
You'd love to know more at comeuntochrist.org :)
When you feel that special spirt of the Holy Ghost, you know that the words uttered by song or by a talk are true and God is with you.
So, back in my senior year of high school, we played a band arrangement of this beautiful hymn. We would play it with so much passion even our director would cry onstage, and i was known not to be able to finish the piece because i was crying too hard. Now, I’ve never been particularly religious, on and off church goer my whole life, but i recently got the pleasure of staying in coast guard boot camp for an extra 3 months due to a stress fracture. I can say without a doubt that it was the hardest thing i’ve ever done, staying there for a total of 5 months, but what really got me through it was sunday mass. Of course, every service we would sing hymns from the hymnal and i would always find some comfort in them. One day though, i was just kind of messing around, flipping through the book, and for whatever reason decided to stop. I looked down, and there it was, It Is Well With My Soul. It was truly one of the most profound moments of my life. It made me realize that I was going to be OK. I thank God every day that He brought me to that page.
A reminder that things will get better and help us through these discouraging times. Im grateful for the blessing of music, but this Phillip P Bliss tune opens my heart and tearducts. It humbles me and gives me much hope that all is well with my soul.
Only God can create a pure heart, through trials that are prescribed for our personal healing. Only God could see past our suffering to the important task of purifying of our soul. Thank you God Jesus ❤🙏❤️
The lady crying 😢 in the very end is amazing. She could feel exactly what I feel when I listen to them. Angels singing praises to the Lord and helping us to be closer to Christ. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻😍😍😍
To this day, this arrangement is in my top 3 favorites that we have sung in the Choir. So full of hope and love from our Savior, that even in our darkest depths of despair, we can still find his love and assurance of peace.
One word: ANGELIC.
I am so thrilled to hear The Tabernacle Choir at Temple Square sing this! :)
My grandmother always says the Lord's greatest gift along with life is music and oh how right she is!!
VERY GOOD SONG TO LISTEN VOICES AND INSTRUMENTS IS MORE NICE TO GET THE FEELING FEOM THE SONG
✝️ That's song is my favourite 🙏🙏🙏🙏✝️
This reminds us, that in times like these unprecedented and uncertainty, we can find peace and comfort by simply listening to this song! The eyes of the performers and their wonderful voices define the word, peace. Truly, it is well with my soul.
Esse hino foi tocado na Conferência em que fui chamado Presidente de Estaca.
Não posso expressar a paz que me trouxe naquele momento.Pude sentir que estava tudo bem e que tudo ficaria bem.
Amo o Salvador e como Ele se manifesta em nossas vidas através da música, especialmente nos momentos que mais precisamos.
Por mais que não consigamos ver claramente nosso futuro se entregamos nossa vida nas mãos do Senhor podemos ter a certeza de que tudo estará bem.
❤
i'm just touched by the lady's reaction @4:23
I can't get enough of this song. It is beautifully arranged and touches my heart.
Teton Music make it louder
I am so touched by the Spirit with this beautiful hymn. I am so thankful for the gift of music. It’s well with my soul!!!!!
What a performance brings me to tears
There were a lot of glistening eyes in the choir and orchestra during this performance of this angelic hymn, just as there are many glistening eyes like mine watching it. Thank the Lord for this.
Oh Lord my God thank you for your salvation upon my soul and my life. Save my family and I. We love you oh lord
How lovely our Lord is that he forgive our sins and never remember them. Isaiah 43:25 “I-yes, I alone-will blot out your sins for my own sake and will never think of them again.
Music truly has such immense healing power. I think we all need this message at this time more than ever. God is real.
In floods of tears again this is magnificent and shows there is a loving saviour and heavenly father a truly beautiful truth .
What a great song of inspiration! Looking forward to the coming of our Lord Jesus soon.Amen..
Amen
Amen
God be with us and peace be with us.Hallelujah praise the Lord Jesus ❣️🙏.
My dad's favorite song, he passed away Jan 21 of this year I miss him an my mom so much
I chose this song for my baptism. I cry every time I listen to it or sing it.
This song is especially meaningful because of the circumstances under which it was written. Thank you for this beautiful, expressive performance!
The best Choir in the world 🌎 ❤️...such beautiful...speechless...!! Blessings 🙌 to all of you ❤️ 🙏
