"Praise You in this Storm"

Yesterday as we were driving home from our small group I heard this song on the radio. I've heard it a million times before, but for some reason instead of singing along, I listened to the lyrics. I started tearing up. The words seemed to fit my situation so well.

The even funnier thing was that our small group study was about how God is always with us. Here are the lyrics,

"I was sure by now,God, that You would have reached down

and wiped our tears away,
stepped in and saved the day.
But once again, I say amen
and it's still raining
as the thunder rolls
I barely hear You whisper through the rain,
"I'm with you"
and as Your mercy falls
I raise my hands and praise
the God who gives and takes away.

Chorus:
And I'll praise you in this storm
and I will lift my hands
for You are who You are
no matter where I am
and every tear I've cried
You hold in your hand
You never left my side
and though my heart is torn
I will praise You in this storm

I remember when I stumbled in the wind
You heard my cry to You
and raised me up again
my strength is almost gone how can I carry on
if I can't find You
and as the thunder rolls
I barely hear You whisper through the rain
"I'm with you"
and as Your mercy falls
I raise my hands and praise
the God who gives and takes away

Chorus

I lift my eyes onto the hills
where does my help come from?
My help comes from the Lord, the maker of heaven and earth
I lift my eyes onto the hills
where does my help come from?
My help comes from the Lord, the maker of heaven and earth

Chorus

I'm so thankful that He is always with me. I needed this reassurance and have a little more peace now that I've got it.

Have a blessed day!
