Sometimes it's hard, sometimes I cry
Sometimes my heart wants to know why?
But your yoke is easy and your burden is light
And though my heart is aching and there're tears in my eyes
Whatever my lot, you have taught me to know
It is well, it is well with my soul
It's not always easy, I'm not always right
Sometimes I do things that are wrong in your sight
But I have decided I'm going to follow Jesus
And there's no turning back, there's no turning back
Whatever my lot, you have taught me to know
It is well, it is well with my soul
You have reached down to me, you have rescued me
And have shed your blood for my soul
And I live now knowing that the sky and not the grave will be my goal
And just as in life, also in death this truth will comfort and console
That soon I will see your face and hear your voice and know that it is well. . .
Whatever my lot, you have taught me to know
It is well, it is well with my soul
But please hold my hand Lord and hold on tight
'Cause the road here is narrow...

Behind the Song:
"Written 12 years ago, tweaked by my good friend Dan Ornellas and inspired by Horatio Spafford's great hymn It is well, this song describes the peace that comes from knowing someone who is constant and deeply attached to me. The God who holds my hand." - Brenton Brown
