Building 429's rendition of the classic hymn "It Is Well" brings a contemporary rock energy to a timeless message of unwavering faith. The song, originally written by Horatio Spafford after profound personal tragedy, expresses a deep, abiding peace that transcends life's storms and sorrows. The lyrics affirm that regardless of circumstances, the soul can rest secure in God's sovereignty and the assurance of salvation through Christ's sacrifice on the cross. It also looks forward to Christ's return and the ultimate fulfillment of hope. This version maintains the hymn's powerful declaration of trust and surrender, making it a stirring anthem for believers facing trials.

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
It is well with my soul
It is well, it is well with 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 it is well with my soul
It is well, it is well with my soul
Soul
Soul
With my soul
Soul
Soul

And Lord haste the day when my fate shall be sight
The clouds be rolled back as the scroll
Oh, 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
And it is well with my soul
It is well, it is well with my soul
