A child turned in a powerful performance of "It Is Well with My Soul." The young man sings the beloved hymn with so much emotion, displaying how much the lyrics mean to him and how much he's feeling them. Watch the short but moving clip to listen and see the talented singer perform "It Is Well with My Soul."
When it comes to church music, hymns are second to none. Even if you are a contemporary Christian music fan, you know this to be 100 percent true. Yes, contemporary Christian music is constantly growing in popularity, with many churches choosing those newer tunes and completely abandoning hymns.
While that may be a growing trend, nothing will ever top the old church hymns. They are all beautifully written and always pack an emotional punch that contemporary Christian music songs do not. "Great is Thy Faithfulness," "How Great Thou Art," "Amazing Grace," and many, many others are and forever will remain undefeated. When it comes to church, no song will ever top those.
In a clip posted on YouTube, one young man perfectly demonstrates the feeling and emotion contained in those lyrics with his sweet, powerful, and moving rendition of "It Is Well with My Soul." It's hard to listen to and watch this little guy sing this song, which is near and dear to the hearts of many, without becoming teary-eyed.
"When sorrows like sea billows roll
Whatever my lot
Thou has taught me to say
It is well, it is well with my soul"
Yes, it is a tune many of us have likely heard hundreds or even thousands of times, but it will always and forever be powerful. Those lyrics perfectly capture life and the troubles we often encounter, but even during those deep, dark valleys, we can have peace that surpasses all understanding, as the song mentions. We can know and be assured that whatever happens, it is well with our soul.
