Tune of the Day: It Is Well with My Soul

Arranged for four flutes

This hymn tune, composed by Philip Bliss to words by Horatio Spafford, is possibly the most influential and enduring in Bliss's repertoire. It appears in many hymnals, and is often taken as a choral model. The actual name of the tune is “Ville du Havre”, after the name of the French ship whose sinking inspired Spafford's lyrics.

Thanks to Christine for suggesting this tune!
