Storms

The winds of this world are blowing fiercely, the rain it starts to pound- the left is now the right side and up is the new down. Lightning flashes I hear thunder I sway in the storm.... I'm kept from going under by the mercy of the Lord. I keep holding on to what I know is true. My roots are planted in the ground that is You. You give me guidance, how to live how to grow. You give me Water; it's the love that you show. You're my Foundation and You keep me standing tall. And with patience You've kept me from the fall. Now the rains have gotten stronger, the tornado I can see. It's churning and it's hungry, and it's eyes are set on me. I don' t have a chance to make it, if I take my eyes off You. Lord keep me focused, as another storm brews. This trial passes I live another day. I've held steadfast to the Life and the Way but the storm's relentless, and the clouds start to moan - Lord please come quickly, and bring your children Home.
