HIVE OPEN MIC WEEK 187| IT IS WELL WITH MY SOUL (A COVER)

What a wonderful day😊. Hello guys I am here once again to participate in this week's open mic. Few days ago I was held down by sickness and that really affected my activeness on hive. That notwithstanding, I will certainly post my entry on this week's open mic come what may. This week's theme (peaceful song) is really an interesting one and appropriate @usagidee in a very special way provide this wonderful theme for the week. Thank you for creating an opportunity for musicians to express themselves through calm and gently music. It really feels good to be here 😊

Responding to the I will be doing one of my favourite hymn; It is well with my Soul by Philip Bliss. It's has been a while I presented a hymn here on hive. Getting to know about the week's theme, this beautiful hymn was the first song that came to my mind and I never thought twice about picking it for the week's entry.

I am a Christian, and I believe in the peace that Christ gives. The song It is well with my Soul by Philip Bliss is a song that reminds us of how peaceful our Soul should be. No matter what comes to being in our lives, we are to realise that it is always well with our souls. When we are distress, when we are in tears, when we have lost things that are so dear to us, we should as Christians realise that it is well with our Soul. Even if our body must have experienced pains form these happenings, we are suppose to be peaceful in the Soul.

My reason for choosing this song for this week's open mic is to encourage every Christian here on hive open mic going through one challenge or the other. Times might be had, things might not be be going on well with your family, their might be war in your country or even worse; but in all these let your soul be calm. The lord knows all of these and he will never allow your Soul perish. It is well with our Souls. This is my message of hope to every one of you in one difficult problem or another.

As usual, I will be doing an acapella version of the hymn It is well with my Soul. I just hope you enjoy every bit of it and that you find peace in your Soul. One love✌️

LYRICS
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

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 has regarded my helpless estate
And hath shed His own blood for my soul

It is well (it is well)
With my soul (with my soul)
It is well, it is well with 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!

It is well (it is well)
With my soul (with my soul)
It is well, it is well with my soul
It is well (it is well)
With my soul (with my soul)
It is well, it is well with my soul.
