Praise God, from whom all blessings flow;

Praise Him, all creatures here below;

Praise Him above, ye heavenly host;

Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.

Sis. Khaleelah Harris

Leader: When distance separates us, love cannot.

People:  Near or far, we are a family, united by God’s love.

Leader: When time lapses and space seems to be great, God’s peace and our precious memories are unfailing.

People:  Cherished times, sounds, and scents of home are forever etched in our hearts.

Leader: We’re grateful for a place to call HOME, and people we call FAMILY.

All:  Our unending love for one another leaves a legacy for generations to come!

It is Well

African Methodist Episcopal Church Hymnal #448

Mighty Men's Choir

When peace, like a river, attendeth my way,

When sorrows, like sea billows, roll;

Whatever my lot, Thou hast taught me to say,

It is well, it is well with my soul.

 

It is well with my soul,

It is well, it is well with my soul.

 

Though Satan should buffet, though trials should come,

Let this blest assurance control,

That Christ has regarded my helpless estate,

And has shed His own blood for my soul.

 

It is well with my soul,

It is well, it is well with my soul.

 

My sin - oh, the bliss of this glorious thought:

My sin, not in part but the whole,

Is nailed to the cross and I bear it no more,

Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, O my soul! 

 

It is well with my soul,

It is well, it is well with my soul.

 

And Lord, haste the day when my faith shall be sight,

The clouds be rolled back as a scroll,

The trump shall resound and the Lord shall descend,

"Even so," it is well with my soul. 

 

It is well with my soul,

It is well, it is well with my soul.

Rev. Moya Harris
