  • They say sometimes you win some
    Sometimes you lose some
    And right now, right now I'm losing bad
    I've stood on this stage night after night
    Reminding the broken it'll be alright
    But right now, oh right now I just can't

    It's easy to sing
    When there's nothing to bring me down
    But what will I say
    When I'm held to the flame
    Like I am right now

    I know You're able and I know You can
    Save through the fire with Your mighty hand
    But even if You don't
    My hope is You alone

    They say it only takes a little faith
    To move a mountain
    Well good thing
    A little faith is all I have, right now
    But God, when You choose
    To leave mountains unmovable
    Oh give me the strength to be able to sing
    It is well with my soul

    I know You're able and I know You can
    Save through the fire with Your mighty hand
    But even if You don't
    My hope is You alone
    I know the sorrow, and I know the hurt
    Would all go away if You'd just say the word
    But even if You don't
    My hope is You alone

    You've been faithful, You've been good
    All of my days
    Jesus, I will cling to You
    Come what may
    'Cause I know You're able
    I know You can

    I know You're able and I know You can
    Save through the fire with Your mighty hand
    But even if You don't
    My hope is You alone
    I know the sorrow, I know the hurt
    Would all go away if You'd just say the word
    But even if You don't
    My hope is You alone

    It is well with my soul
    It is well, it is well with my soul Writer/s: Bart Millard, Ben Glover, Crystal Lewis, David Garcia, Tim Timmons

  • J.v. from ArizonaI have been watching this video on YouTube for 2 days now and can't stop crying. There is so much turmoil in my life that my relationship with God has been far removed. It's like MercyMe knew this and wrote this song for me.
