As a person seeking a benediction from God for a very sore soul, this song truly brought "Peace as a River" to me. This song was written by a man a couple of hundred years ago after losing his wife and children sailing to England and as a true acceptance of what he was suffering captured the very essence of the Savior of this world's sacrifice for all of his children and creatures. I loved it and I felt God's love for me as well.
this song really change me i was a homosexual and when i heard this song it change me i was going through a lot and still going through i God love me and he no all my pains he no my struggle i love this song so much that i write it in my word God bless you keep singing for the lord that your gift to minister unto people God don t make mistakes and i will cont to love your music .
Amidst this 2020 pandemic this song uplifts the broken spirit and praises the Lord Jesus. Lets continue to trust the Lord Jesus for strength, courage and peace that passeth all understanding.

I am an ELCA Lutheran from South Carolina. I play the piano and organ. Today (May 5, Easter 6), we sang this as the Hymn of the Day. It is #785 in Evangelical Lutheran Worship.
WOOOOOOOOOOW! Always brings tears....thank you for sharing. THANK YOU LORD! Picturing this...which will soon happen!!!! GLORY HALLELUJAH! Faith shall be sight...
2018 turns out the mightiest moutain i have ever imagined to climb up in life. My most heartbreaking moments Lord. But this song sends me peace in the Lord. 😔
Babs Fickes This hymn was always been a favorite of my fathers. At the memorial service for our sister, when a soloist started to sing this, her siblings and other family members chimed in with the most beautiful harmony from memory. I could feel my father smiling from above
May God bless and comfort you through this difficult time. This song has brought peace to a lot of troubled hearts and I pray that this version of it will do the same for you!
There's a man at my church who is dying. He's not expected to last the week. He's such a fixture at my church, it's weird to think he won't be there Sunday. Whenever I hear this song, I think of him. It's his favorite hymn. I'll probably be singing at this funeral and I plan on singing this song...
I want this played at my own funeral, such POWERFUL words, and , family, IT IS WELL WITH MY SOUL! My own life perhaps did not project this, but, inside of the spirit man...................it is well!
LOVE YOU MY HONOURED SISTER JONI EARECKSON! YOU HAVE BEEN AN INSPIRATION TO ME, FOR THE WHOLE OF MY LIFE! MANY BLESSINGS! WITH MUCH LOVE MY HONOURED SISTER and Shalom!
Wonderful Spiritual wilderness journey of enlightenment! Grab your life vest and enjoy the ride. Your soul's in good hands. Psalm 1:2b-3a;"on his law he meditates day and night. He is like a tree planted by streams of water." Revelation 22:1b-2a;"flowing from the throne of God and of the Lamb down the middle of the great street of the city" Proverbs 1:4a-5b;"for giving prudence ...knowledge and discretion...let the wise listen and add to their learning" Thanks for a great video and song!
I am an ELCA Lutheran from South Carolina. I play the piano and organ. Today (November 17, Pentecost 26), we sang this as the Closing Hymn. It is #785 in Evangelical Lutheran Worship.
mkl62 On a couple of occasions when we sang this in my church, our (now former) pastor told us the story behind the writing of the hymn. We also sang it at my grandmother's funeral.
This has to be the most beautiful rendition of this song that I have ever heard. Through the years this song has always ministered to me, and I am so thankful that you have posted this so I can listen to it all the time now. God bless you and keep you in His shalom!
Just looked up this hymn; it's in a book I have about the Psalms that are in Jewish music and aso Christian hymns, I just purchased it from a Jewish Christian Organization I partner with. I knew it only as "It is well with my soul" and I had no idea that Joni Eareckson Tada had such a beautiful voice, I had never heard her sing before. This song is one of my favorites and I love how it is sung by Joni and the Chorale; there is also a mostly Hebrew CD included.
Wow. Beautiful, just beautiful. You did a great job. I am a Christian as well, and I have faith God will take care of us. I got in a fender bender with my Aunt today. Nothing bad, but it could've been. But, at the speed we were, it couldn't be too bad! (We were 2 mph)
Very beautiful rendition, and beautiful places and scenes in the video. I recognize many of them as I live in BC and have been to Jasper a couple times before. Thank you for posting!
Im 25th weeks pregnant and the genetic doctor told me that my little angels limb is 4 weeks late to her normal size which can lead to abortion.my tears flows infront of her and I cant stop crying as this is my first baby at the age of 35. At first I ask God why? All my families kids were normal and healthy. Why should I suffered like this. I'm I cursed? For God didnt bless my womb? But at the end I entrust myself to Him. He is our creator ,our redeemer! He shed His blood for me and for you, so I pray to pleased make miracle to my baby. But as friends of Daniel said, wether He will save us from fire or not, we will still Trust in His name. For the Lord is God and no one is above Him..👼👼👼👨👩👧🙏🙏🙏🙏👣👣👣👣 I
Amell Vidas I am sorry to hear it, but is encouraged by your steadfast faith in God. I will also pray for you and hope God will wonder for you and your baby. God bless
That is great! This is certainly a beautiful hymn that has blessed many people throughout the years! I live in Southern Ontario, but am currently on vacation in the Netherlands.
Thanks for your kind words, Margarita. God is great and his glory is displayed all around us in His creation!! I love Joni as well. She remains an inspiration to me!
I think It makes the song even more powerful when you think that the author had just lost his 4 daughters in a shipwreck, shortly after the death of his only son. And Joni Eareckson was a promising athlete dreaming of the olympics who was paralysed neck-down in a swimming accident in her late teens.
Though this song required a great trial to be written - it is has since been a great blessing to a great many people. Glad that it helped your grandma.
If people would simply understand that there are radicals in all religions and races and those who actually realize this is true, would simply join that peace train, we would find out that we truly are not that different from each other. We all bleed, we all cry, we all worry about our families and their futures, we all want peace in some form or another, we all want love .... greeting from palestine
Romans 15:13May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.
Thanks Jack, My father-in-law took all the video, and I spliced together suitable scenes and added the music for this one. I live in Orono, Ontario (east of Toronto) and the swans (of Swan Lake) were filmed in Newcastle, Ontario very close to Lake Ontario. God bless you as well brother.
@arwenae They both knew tragedy and real pain, must have questioned God's purpose in it all, yet were able to speak these words with conviction. They knew the peace of God, and as for purpose- the two of them, in different ways, have touched so many lives for good, and helped so many souls to find the same salvation that they knew, that the number cannot even be guessed. And I am confident that the reward He has laid up for them to come is great indeed.
I recently came across an article about the author of this song... Horatio G. Spafford. After so much tragedy in his life to be able to write a song like this. Google his name and check it out.
Wow, thanks for all the Beautiful pictures w/this AMAZING song!! And, such artistry!! I'm having to watch it several times to take it all in! I'd love to know how you filmed all that. I'm out of touch w/my brother-in-law who could help me figure that out. Yet, too, I can't afford any equipment yet. Probably would want to do something simpler. God Bless you!!
My Dad passed away Sep 2011. This was his favourite song. I know how you're feeling. May God be near you and give you His peace at this time!
Thank you Lord for the peace that you provide over all of us who believe.

Amidst this 2020 pandemic this song uplifts the broken spirit and praises the Lord Jesus. Lets continue to trust the Lord Jesus for strength, courage and peace that passeth all understanding.

The hymn has been a favourite of mine for many years. Joni Erickson's rendition is beautiful. The Canadian scenes are awesome.
Thanks Scott. I would agree about the Canadian West and about Joni's version of the song.
Thank you so much for this amazing song and video! Isn't it wonderful how the beauty of the earth reflects
the might and the tenderness of God?
+lovesings2us Amen! Thanks for your encouragement!
The "beauty of the earth" is indeed a reflection of "the might and the tenderness of God." It is even surely a manifestation of His Creation.
Babs Fickes This hymn was always been a favorite of my fathers. At the memorial service for our sister, when a soloist started to sing this, her siblings and other family members chimed in with the most beautiful harmony from memory. I could feel my father smiling from above
Thank you Lord JESUS CHRIST KING OF THE KINGS !!! Amen

I don't think Horatio Spafford would have had any idea of just how many people would go on to sing and be blessed by this powerful hymn!

Lovely comforting hymn
Thank you
to God be the glory I can report victory, I can say it is well with my soul.
Wonderful song

Lovely
Thank you, this is beautiful!
