It is well
(It is well)
With my soul
(With my soul)
It is well
It is well with my soul
But if this is true
It is true only because
I have paid attention
It is true because I have noticed
That my soul
Is yoked to your soul
And that this yoke
Is not a burden
It is not an evil
For you and me
To be bound together
Though we are different
Though our souls are foreign
And unknown to one another
It is not strange
And it is not a thing
To fear
No
It is the most natural thing
In the universe
Because you and I
We are the universe
We are shaped from the same clay
We are made in God’s image
And we are good
And we are one
And it is well
(It is well)
With my soul
(With my soul)
Only
When it is well
With your soul too
Because my soul
And your soul
Are one
Not the same
But one
And I promise you
My sister
I pledge to you
My brother
That I will act justly
With you
That I will be kind
To you
Because you and I
We are salt
Of the same earth
We are light
In the same sky
We are one
We are indivisible
And I will not give up on you
