Lyrics

I was sure by now,

God, You would have reached down

and wiped our tears a way,

stepped in and saved the day.

But my But once a gain

How I say, “A men,”

and it’s still rain ing.

But (Gm)as the thun der rolls,

I (Bb)bare ly hear You whis per through the rain,

“I’m with you.”

And (Gm)as Your mer cy falls,

I (Bb)raise my hands and praise the God who gives

and takes a way.

And I’ll praise You in this storm,

and I will lift my hands,

for You are who You are,

no mat ter where I am.

And ev ’ry tear I’ve cried

You hold in Your hand.

You nev er left my side.

And though my heart is torn,

I will praise You in this storm.

I re mem ber when

I stum bled in the wind.

You heard my cry to You,

and raised me up a gain.

But my is al most gone.

How I car ry on

if I can’t find You?

But (Gm)as the thun der rolls,

I (Bb)bare ly hear You whis per through the rain,

“I’m with you.”

And (Gm)as Your mer cy falls,

I (Bb)raise my hands and praise the God who gives

and takes a way.

And I’ll praise You in this storm,

and I will lift my hands,

for You are who You are,

no mat ter where I am.

And ev ’ry tear I’ve cried

You hold in Your hand.

You nev er left my side.

And though my heart is torn,

I will praise You in this storm.

I lift my eyes un to the hills.

Where does my help come from?

My help comes from the Lord, the (Am)Mak er of Heav en and Earth.

I lift my eyes un to the hills.

Where does my help come from?

My help comes from the Lord, the (Am)Mak er of Heav en and Earth.

And I’ll praise You in this storm,

and I will lift my hands,

And ev ’ry tear I’ve cried

You hold in Your hand.

You nev er left my side.

And though my heart is torn,

And though my heart is torn,

I praise You in this storm.
