It Is Well Chords & Lyrics - The Isaacs

[VERSE 1]
There [C]lived a man and woman[F] in a town called Shunem.[C]
They made a home for Elisha and found [G]favor in his eyes.[C]
So God sent them a miracle[F] , the only thing they longed for;[C]
Within a year they would hold a son as E[G]lisha [F]prophe[C]sied.

One day they ran from the field[F] , brought the child to his mother;[C]
She held his head there on her knee until he [G]died at noon that day[C] .
She didn't tell anyone; she went[F] straight to the man of God[C] ,
And if anybody asked her, she re[G]plied a[F]long the [C]way,

[CHORUS]
"It is well. It is [G]well!
There is [F]peace in my dispair knowing [Dsus4]God will hear my [G]prayer,
And I will [C]cling to the [G]promise that He brings.
Even [F]death will have no sting, no power in hell[G] ,
For it is [C]well!" [D]

[VERSE 2]
Elisha stood by the bedside[G] where she laid the boy when he died[D] .
He prayed a prayer upon him, and he [A]breathed new life again![D]
Friend, God doesn't ever change[G] , and if you'll have that woman's faith[D] ,
He'll send you a miracle, and un[A]til then [G]you can [D]say,

[CHORUS]
"It is well. It is [A7]well!
There is [G]peace in my dispair knowing [Esus4]God will hear my [A]prayer,
And I will [D]cling to the [A]promise that He brings.
Even [G]death will have no sting, no power in hell[A] ,
For it is [D]well. It is [A7]well!
There is [G]peace in my dispair knowing [Esus4]God will hear my [A]prayer,
And I will [D]cling to the [A]promise that He brings.
Even [G]death will have no sting, no power in hell[A] ,
For it is [D]well.
