    Oh, all of these cards took my breath away as I viewed them. However, the card featuring "It is well with my soul" totally made me gasp with surprise. That is among my all time favorites as I remember my grandfather singing it and his rich deep bass. He has been gone for almost 8 years now and I miss him terribly. I would love to win this set, but if I don't, I will definitely be purchasing it.
