Enduring The Storms of Life


Sometimes it’s hard to take

The bitter with the sweet,

To face the raging storms of life

And not give up in defeat.

Sometimes we rely on worldly things

To help us reach our goals.

We build our hopes upon the sand,

And the storms beat on our souls.

But if we put our trust in God

We're building on His rock,

And all the storms of life can’t harm

Anyone who’s in His flock.

We will endure the storms of life

With faith and trust in His love,

For He will set His lighthouse

To guide us from above.

Then whatever challenges we face,

Whatever be our plight,

He will guide us safely home

If we only follow in His light.
