Storms

Wind and rain can ruin towns
They cause much grief and pain
These storms I see tear each house down
And leave nothing but remains

As I see these dark storms destroy
I can quickly sense my fading joy
And as I feel the cold wind blow
I try and hide my fear
For my mind can now sense
That the deadly storm is near

I know of this big dark storm
I’ve seen it many times
It makes you think the air is warm
Before it steals your life

I’ve felt the pain, heard the crash
Of the storms that fill my mind
The lightning has tried to burn
All the joy that’s left inside

The lightning’s like a raging fire
That can fight against the rain
And it swallows all that’s in its path
But leaves its charred remains

So here I sit and here I wonder
How will I escape the thunder?
Who can help me and keep me safe?
And guard my life before it’s too late?

As my fear grows and my smile fades away
An angel comes from nowhere
And swears to save the day

He fills my mind with joy again
And calms all that’s loud
And I can feel the way I did back when
My heart was free of clouds

He wraps his arms tight around me
And I find this comfort is astounding
For I never met someone
Who can stop the storm
And promise to protect my life forevermore

So here I sit, the angel by my side
That angel sent from God
That can make the storm subside

And now I know our love will never fade
And will never fall apart
Because I know he will forever love me
And never break my heart
