What song uplifts your spirit when things are down or when things are rough?

For me, when things are rough and my spirit is down, I like to listen to music that will help uplift my spirt. There are a lot of songs and artist that I really enjoy, but I have to say one song that always helps me is the old classic hymn "It is well with my soul"
It's not just the beautiful words of the song, but the story behind the song.
Here is a link that you can follow that will share the history and the lyrics to this song.

I love praise and worship songs, but I don't know what inspired them to write that song. But here you see a man who lost everything and because he has a Heavenly Father that never left him, never stopped loving him and never stopped hurting for him. This man was able to say "it is well with my soul"
I pray in times of heartache and loss, I will be able to stand and say "God, it is well with my soul"
