When peace like a river attendeth my way
When sorrows like sea billows role
Whatever my lot, thou has taught me to know
It is well, it is well with my soul.
When satan should buffet - when trials should come
Lest this blest assurance control
That Christ has regarded my helpless estate
And has shed His own blood for my soul

When this man wrote this hymn he was on a ship in the vicinity of where his daughters had drowned. Even though he had lost his greatest loves, he looked to Christ and found peace. I have the same peace because I know He lives.

One can say, "it is well with with my soul", only if one trust in Christ alone for ones salvation.
