Praise You in This Storm

This song has been an encouragement to me the last week. My desire is to continue to praise God through the storms of life, no matter how rough they may seem. I hope it encourages you as well.


I was sure by now, God, 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.

I’ll praise You in this storm, and I will lift my hands.
For You are who You are, no matter where I am.
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.

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’ll praise You in this storm, and I will lift my hands.
For You are who You are, no matter where I am.
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 lift my eyes unto the hills.
Where does my help come from?
My help comes from the Lord, the Maker of Heaven and Earth.
I lift my eyes unto the hills.
Where does my help come from?
My help comes from the Lord, the Maker of Heaven and Earth.

I’ll praise You in this storm, and I will lift my hands.
For You are who You are, no matter where I am.
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.
