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

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


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


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


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