"It is Well with my Soul" was written by Horatio Spafford in 1873, following the drownings of all four of his daughters when the ship "Loch Earn" sank in the Atlantic.
In August 2003, Malaysian entrepreneur Francis Yeoh, commissioned the Three Tenors — Plácido Domingo, José Carreras and Luciano Pavarotti — to sing "It is Well with my Soul," with Spafford's great granddaughter and other Spafford descendants in the audience at Bath, England.
