Praise YOU in the Storm

I thought it fitting for today, as Hurricane Fay looms on the horizon…to take a look at some very recognizable lyrics from Casting Crowns.  May we always look to the Lord for our strength, help and protection.   A great reminder today is to: “Be anxious for nothing, but be in prayer about everything”.

15 PM EDT shows clouds near Cuba where Tropical Storm Fay continues on her trek towards the US. The storm could gain hurricane status before making landfall over Florida.

Praise You in This Storm
words by Mark Hall/music by Mark Hall and Bernie Herms

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

    this is my all time favorite song. Right now in my life I feel my heart is being ripped apart and somedays I don’t even want to get out of bed but this song reminds me no matter what God is there and He will be with me and see me through
