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 are 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 Yes, the road here is narrow
