A mass of air forms into a layer of white
Slowly the sun fades, the day is like night
The clouds just keep rolling in
Another storm is about to begin
Why now, why here, why me Lord?
Please take it away and make it no more!
But my prayer seems to go on deaf ears
The storm has begun, confirming my fears
Pounding and pounding, I hold on tight
My strength is wearing thin, I'm out of fight.
Oh lord what must I Do
I can't make it, I'll give it to you.
I let go and the wind carries me away
Like a giant hand controlling my fate
A calm fills me, I'm no longer afraid
A peace enters me, my worries fade
For I realize no matter what happens now
My future's secure, I'm in His will now.
As the storm continues to pound
My feet finally touch the ground
I realize now this was meant to be
For over time I had quit trusting thee
For I quit needing to know you
I felt my strength could carry me through
But every time I get behind the wheel
I see the devil coming in for the kill
I veer to the left, I veer to the right
But he still has me in his sight.
I know my life is about to end
Until I remember my one true friend
I put You right back where You belong
You drive around and then beyond
The devil is helpless he cannot win
For You knew from the beginning, the end.
Thank you Jesus for troubles I must endure
That sends me back to the faith I had before
You remind me that You're the only way
No matter how bright or dim, I find my day.
