I Will Praise You In This Storm


So I was watching this video on YouTube today, and it really touched me. I wanted to share it with you. This girl is awesome!
 
 
Casting Crowns - I'll Praise You in This Storm
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.
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
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

I started thinking about the flood victims in Nashville, along with the tornado victims in Yazoo and those dealing with the oil spill on the Coast. It's so hard to see others dealing with such difficult circumstances, yet so inspirational to know that our God has made us human beings with hearts who help each other in times of need. I wanted to post the lyrics of the song, so everyone could really understand its meaning. God gives and takes away, but He holds our hands through every bit of it. I love the line that says, "And every tear I've cried, You hold in Your hand." How great is it to have a God who is with you no matter what. Hope this finds you and your families well, and God bless!
