Verse 1
When the road underneath me is shaking,
And the sky’s got no trace of the sun,
When I’m carrying questions unanswered,
And I’m too tired to keep holding on,
There’s a voice underneath all the thunder,
There’s a peace that the storm cannot steal,
I don’t have to know where You’re leading,
I just know that Your promises are real.
Pre-Chorus
So when my heart can’t see
What my faith still believes…
Chorus
When the ground gives way beneath me,
When the night won’t let me go,
I will trust the One who keeps me,
The One who’s never let me go.
I may bend, but I won’t break,
I’m held by hands that never fail.
Through the hurting, through the waiting—
It is well, it is well.
Oh, whatever comes tomorrow,
It is well with my soul.
Verse 2
I’ve had nights when the hurt felt like heaven
Had forgotten my name and my prayers,
But the scars in the hands of my Savior
Tell me He’s already been there.
So I’ll bring Him the pieces and heartache,
Every fear that I cannot control,
‘Cause the One who walked out of the graveyard
Is the One who won’t let me go.
Pre-Chorus
And when my heart can’t see
What my faith still believes…
Chorus
When the ground gives way beneath me,
When the night won’t let me go,
I will trust the One who keeps me,
The One who’s never let me go.
I may bend, but I won’t break,
I’m held by hands that never fail.
Through the hurting, through the waiting—
It is well, it is well.
Oh, whatever comes tomorrow,
It is well with my soul.
Bridge — stripped down
Not because the storm is over,
Not because the hurt is gone,
Not because I understand it,
But because I know the One
Who holds tomorrow,
Who conquered death and hell.
So even here…
Even now…
I can say—
Final Chorus — full band / gospel harmonies
When the ground gives way beneath me,
When the night won’t let me go,
I will trust the One who keeps me,
The One who’s never let me go.
I may bend, but I won’t break,
I’m held by hands that never fail.
Through the hurting, through the waiting—
It is well, it is well!
Oh, whatever comes tomorrow,
Whatever road I have to go,
My Jesus, You will still be with me—
It is well with my soul.
Outro — acoustic guitar & piano
Whatever comes…
Whatever goes…
You’re still God,
And I’m still Yours.
It is well…
It is well…
With my soul
