Within the arms of the storm

Our thoughts to so many others
While the wind whipped around us
Continuing through this day
Within the arms of the storm
Thinking about family, friends,
Our brothers and sisters
Struggling in the wake
Within the storm’s fury
Yet singing Your praises
Your presence with us
Comfort even in trials
In the arms of our Savior
In the presence of God
Holding us in the storms
In the trials of our lives
