Stanley Abalu, a gifted Nigerian-Italian singer, songwriter, award-winning worship leader, author, and pastor, releases his most recent single, “It Shall Be Well.”
A song that was inspired by God through my personal experience says Stanley Abalu.
A few years ago, when I was working as a civil servant and things were really tough and I could not meet my basic needs, I was given the song “It Shall Be Well.” At one point, I was unable to pay my rent and other bills.
At the time, I was feeling disheartened, so I prayed and asked the Lord why. Through Psalms 128:1-2, he studied. The Lord then told me that even though things appear challenging, those who fear the Lord will be blessed. And my story has been altered by God today.
The message of the song “It Shall Be Well” is to encourage genuine followers of Christ to hold fast to their faith and trust in God in spite of hardships or persecution. It is meant to inspire optimism and provide reassurance that, despite adversity, things will soon improve. God’s providence, deliverance, redemption, and encouragement for the Christian are assured in the Lord, regardless of what the enemy throws at them.
The multi-talented singer Stanley Abalu claims that Daniel Montecolle at Funkyman Records (Italy) mastered and performed the song “It shall be well,” which was produced by Ramzy RMS (Abuja).

LYRICS
It shall be well by Stanley Abalu (Psalm 128:2)
It shall be well, with me today
It shall be well, In the name of the Lord
It shall be well, with me today
It shall be well, In the name of the Lord
Sometime, I am confused,
when I don’t know what to do
There were times I don’t know
Uuu which way to go
There are times no food on the table
No clothes on my wardrobe
No place I could call my home
Yeah when it looks like my worst has come to me
But I declare my best is yet to come
Because Gods’ word says
It shall be well ….with them that fears the Lord
It shall be well, with me today
It shall be well, In the name of the Lord
It shall be well, with me today
It shall be well, In the name of the Lord
Listen
When you call JESUS in the morning
Just as the sun is shining
When trial comes your way
And you can’t see your way
Situation knocks you down, down down
And you can’t see no one around
So Don’t give up, don’t give in
To everything that you see
Like the woman with the issue of blood
She said, if only I can touch
I believe I be made whole
So declare with your mouth
That it shall be well with me (you)
It shall be well, with me today
It shall be well, In the name of the Lord
It shall be well, with me today
It shall be well, In the name of the Lord
I wanna tell you hold on – Hold on
Hold on to your faith – ahhhhh
For I believe, For I know everything is turning around
Repeat chorus.
