My Prayer

Dear Lord,

Thank you that despite the storms going on in our lives we can turn to You for peace and comfort. Despite the wind, the rain, the snow, the thunder, lightning, or even the waves You are constant. And it is You Lord that gives us the strength to stand in the rain. You are faithful Lord and you are with us.

STAND IN THE RAIN – SuperChick

She never slows down.
She doesn’t know why but she knows
that when she’s all alone,
feels like it’s all coming down
She won’t turn around
The shadows are long
and she fears if she cries that first tear,
the tears will not stop raining down

[CHORUS]
So stand in the rain
Stand your ground
Stand up when it’s all crashing down
You stand through the pain
You won’t drown
And one day, what’s lost can be found
You stand in the rain

She won’t make a sound
Alone in this fight with herself
and the fears whispering
if she stands she’ll fall down
She wants to be found
The only way out is
through everything she’s running from
wants to give up and lie down.

[CHORUS]
So stand in the rain
Stand your ground
Stand up when it’s all crashing down
You stand through the pain
You won’t drown
And one day, what’s lost can be found
You stand in the rain

So stand in the rain
Stand your ground
Stand up when it’s all crashing down
Stand through the pain
You won’t drown
And one day, what’s lost can be found

[CHORUS]
So stand in the rain
Stand your ground
Stand up when it’s all crashing down
You stand through the pain
You won’t drown
And one day, what’s lost can be found
You stand in the rain
