Day 7: "It is well"

Bethel Music released an album called "You Make Me Brave" and I think I love every song on it. One of my favorites is called "It is well". It alludes to the hymn which I think is great. I like it when people redo hymns without just changing up the beat and "remixing" it. This is more of a rethinking of the hymn. It kind of unpacks how things that seem earth shattering to us don't seem that big to God. Not that they aren't important...but just that they are still completely manageable and within the scope of His power and plan. Anything that seems impossible to us is completely possible to God. We have to trust Him and keep our eyes on Him. If we do that, we can see that it really can be well with our souls. If our focus shifts to our circumstances, we fall apart, but as long as we are focused on God, we can say "it is well".


Grander earth has quaked before
Moved by the sound of His voice
Seas that are shaken and stirred
Can be calmed and broken for my regard

Through it all, through it all
My eyes are on You
Through it all, through it all
It is well
Through it all, through it all
My eyes are on You
It is well with me

Far be it from me to not believe
Even when my eyes can’t see
And this mountain that’s in front of me
Will be thrown into the midst of the sea

Through it all, through it all
My eyes are on You
Through it all, through it all
It is well
Through it all, through it all
My eyes are on You
It is well, It is well

So let go my soul and trust in Him
The waves and wind still know His name

It is well with my soul
It is well with my soul
It is well with my soul
It is well, it is well with my soul
