Keep Saying It Lyrics

I'm gonna keep saying it

I won't stop talking it

I'm gonna keep saying it

Let the redeemed of the lord say so

Though the night may seem so dark

And the day so dull

Even hope seems to be hopeful

And my situation seems berieved of a solution

Still i shall see beyond my sight

And feel beyond my touch

I will hope against hope

So i'm gonna keep saying it

And i won't stop taking it

It is well with my soul!

It may take so much effort to wear a smile on my face

And even more to rid off my fear for this race

It may be a long way to my dream place

But on this dark day i would keep walking

For though i may not yet be there

I am sure not where i used to be

For in the midst of this black night

My star will shine so bright that the sun will envy

And even though the day may delay

I'm gonna keep saying it

And i won't stop talking it

It is well with my soul!

And so i may be curled up in the shell of shame

And my future trample upon my ancient histories of pain

And even my name i fear to bear

For it tags along with it great responsibility

My will is toughened that though the night tarries

Joy shall surely come in the morning

So like the dust, you may best me beneath your feet as you want

But indeed like the dust, the harder you beat, the higher i shall rise

Cos i'm gonna keep saying it

I won't stop talking it

It is well with my soul!

I'm gonna keep saying it

I won't stop talking it

I'm gonna keep saying it

Let the redeemed of the lord say so

May all the world witness this day as i say

Weep not for my present travail

Doubt not that the ship of my destiny shall set sail

For i am a seed of promise, a child of destiny

Watered by the word that gives life to the body

No tyranny our circumstance can hold a determined will for too long

For i look to the heavens from whence cometh my help

There do i see the hills of faith

They bid me to take my place among them

In the hall of faith where the brave will live forever

So with that in sight i'm gonna keep saying it and i won't stop talking it

And to all my friends this law again i serve

Be careful how you read me lest you misread me

For i have long been weaned from timidity

Now beyond the terrors of the night and shadows of my fear

I see a day beautifully clear

For the turbulence of the sea shall no longer move me to rage

But with quietness and courage, i shall still the storm

I may be quiet but i shall not be timid

I may be respectful but i shall not be afraid

I may be pressured on every side but i shall not be overwhelmed

I may be content, but make no mistakes about it

I am not yet satisfied

It may seem like i've lost the battle,

But brother, i shall surely win the war

Cos i'm gonna keep saying it and i won't stop talking it

It is well with my soul!

Whereon does my faith stand

That he was born to die that death may be defeated

Now with him i have risen above the bleakness of my past

For though i had been the marry clay

Now on the solid rock i shall stand

For he has caused me to laugh on the day i mourn

Now i shall no longer walk on naked feet

But as a prince, i shall ride on horses

For this is a fine day where i shall move beyond

the range of my cage and higher up in the sky i shall fly

Cos i'm gonna keep saying it

And i won't stop talking it

It is well with my soul!

I'm gonna keep saying it

I won't stop talking it

I'm gonna keep saying it

Let the redeemed of the lord say so
