Golda, the way I understand it, the man who wrote this song was in real estate in Chicago at the beginning of the 20th century. He and his family were wealthy and friends with a famous preacher. The preacher had gone to England to preach and the family without the Father because he had business to attend to and would come over later, sailed over. But the ship was hit by a torpedoe and sank drowning all four of his daughters. His wife survived and telegramed her husband "It is well with my soul." Later he sailed over to join his wife and at the spot where his daughters had died he had the inspiration for the song "It is well with my Soul."
Beautiful story.
I'll try to find a link to corroberate my memory.

This is a most wonderful expression of thanks to God from a man under the pressures of this world
Verse 3 says
My sin - O the bliss of this glorious thought
My sin - not in part but the whole
is nailed to His cross and I bear it no more
Praise THE LORD Praise THE LORD O my soul

There is another part of this hymn writer's history which must be brought up. When a third tragedy hit his family, many of his fellow church members' claimed that it must be God's judgment for some sin. Thus, he left with his family and a handful of friends and lived as a broken man in Israel.

This song had truly been a blessing to me.I had a chance to worship with Pastor Danny Davis at Jordan Grove Baptist and his sermon was about the author of this song.The Pastor clearly explained the reason why the author wrote the song. It was a help to me because I losted my daughter in August,2008.I can relate to what the author was saying.I have let go and let God.It is well with my soul. Each day God gives me a clear understanding of His Will being done.

Thee amazing thing about this song is the circumstances in which it was written. Most people would question God and their faith after losing all 5 of their children to a tragic accident of a sinking ship. This man sat down and poured his heart to the lord on paper....What an amazing song......

No matter what this song still says it best " it is well with my soul " I thought losing one son was bad and then I hear about Mr. Spafford and his wife losing five children and it makes me so thankfull for the children God left me with, two sons and a daughter. May 2009 be blessed and well to everyones soul !

Last sunday when my pastor introduced his surmon by singing this song, i felt like my world had rolled a fresh again coz of the things, trials and tribulations have gone through in ma life. he read spafords biography
and the state he was in when he first wrote this song and i realised that even in the darkest moments of ma life its well with my soul because of christ. dear brethren, every time you are going through some stuff just remember that there are others going thru worse things than you. and the bible says, our tribulations are just for a moment and after that God will bring us to a place of rest. it is well with your soul.

My pastor loves this song. When the praise and worship team sings this song at church, it sounds great. I'm sure Heaven enjoys it also.

I too heard this song on Army Wives and had forgotten it was the one song a dear friend sang at my 20-year-old son's funeral 18 years ago. I'm now ready to sing it, because, finally, it is well with my soul! |

This song has been sung in my church for many, many years and we continue to sing it to this day. With all that I am going through it is good to know that God is still on the throne and He is forever uplifting me in so many ways. "IT IS WELL WITH MY SOUL!"

This hymn is so beautiful. It really brings home the message that it is not worldly pleasures that bring peace, but instead the peace of Christ and the love of God to be found in family and true friendship and in a close relationship with God himself!! :)
What joy to hear these words and this uplifting tune!!!! Young Christians need to sing this song to remind themselves of its meaning, and to stay true to Jesus in this awful world!!!
