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. James Corwin |
