When the Storms Come

The storm came suddenly out of no where We did not hear the tornado warning blare Black skies wind roaring torrential rain When it was over nothing will ever be the same All we knew and loved a thing of the past Some of us sensed it coming, but not that fast Life took a sharp turn that was not right I am sad and angry God, am I cut off from your light Why did this happen sending clouds so black Was it my fault, her fault, his fault something we lack We loved you served you, God why oh why Some of us so angry, can't even cry Answer me quickly Lord, my spirit fails Don't hide your face, ignore our wails Rescue us take the anger sorrow from our heart We trust you, what do we do to even start The Lord heard our anguish and felt our pain For those of us who waited patiently calling Jesus name The Lord was our lamp, turned the dark clouds into light No it did not happen quickly overnight He set our feet on a rock, freed us from the miry pit of pain Loved us, removed the anguish and anger, even if we were to blame Jesus warns us in this world we will have trouble and sorrows Take heart rejoice, Jesus overcame death Leaving us peace hope through all our tomorrows Cast your need of love, care, anxiety, worries To God's mighty hand He will answer it at the right time lift you from the miry pit On a rock you will stand Fear not the storm that comes suddenly out of the blue God will come to heal your pain, your anger He has wonderful plans for you
