Stanley Abalu, a talented Nigerian-Italian singer, songwriter, award-winning worship leader, author, and pastor, has just released his latest single, "It Shall Be Well." Inspired by personal experiences and divine revelation, this powerful song carries a message of hope and assurance.

The story behind "It Shall Be Well" stems from a challenging period in Stanley's life, during his time as a civil servant. He recalls a difficult season when he struggled to meet his basic needs, unable to afford rent or fulfill other responsibilities. Feeling discouraged, he sought solace in prayer, questioning God about his circumstances. During this time, while meditating on Psalms 128:1-2, God spoke to him, reminding him that despite the hardships, "It shall be well" for those who fear the Lord.

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.
