Thank You For The Storm Lyrics & Chords

By The Carr Family

Verse 1

(G)It's a (D)blessing when I see the dark clouds parting

When the (Bm)rain is gone and the sun is breaking through (A)

I an(G)ticipate when life will just be normal

Just to (C)close my weary (Gm)eyes and rest in (A)you

My heart can (D)rest so easy when there's blue skys

When the (Bm)wind is gone and rain is not in sight (A)

How I (G)long to aang my sword above the mantle

(C)Away from harm and (G)distant from the (A)fight



Chorus

But I (D)wouldn't know Your peace without the hard times

Or be (Bm)thankful for relief without the pain

I wouldn't (G)love the light if it were not for the darkness

Or (C)appreciate the (G)sun without the (A)rain

How could I (D)understand forgiveness without failure

Or feel the (Bm)warmth of love without the bitter cold (A)

How could I (G)hold Your healing (F#)hands without aff(Bm)licti(A)on

And be (C)blessed to see Your (G)mercies all un(A)fold

Sure it's a (G)blessing to be (A)safe, secure, and (Bm)warm (A)

But (G)Lord I want to thank you (A)for the (D)storm



Verse 2

Imagine as peter sat in prison

He may have paced the floor with chains around his feet

And in his mind the devil taunt it as he whispers

The battles lost and this is your defeat

But then his mind nt back to that night in the tempest

When the master spoke and winds and seas obeyed

And he remembered that storm calming all around him

He could rest in that dark prison unafraid and say



Chorus

I wouldn't know Your peace without the hard times

Or be thankful for relief without the pain

I wouldn't love the light if it were not for the darkness

Or appreciate the sun without the rain

How could I understand forgiveness without failure

Or feel the warmth of love without the bitter cold

How could I hol Your healing hands without affliction

And be blessed to see Your mercies all unfold

Sure it's a blessing to be safe, secure, and warm

But lord I want to thank you for the storm



Ending

(A)If my life were (G)free of (F#)trials Lord I'd (Bm)loose my (A)view of (E)you

(Em)there's sweet trophies that (D)remind me of (A)all you do

Sure it's a (G)blessing to be (A)safe, secure, and (Bm)warm (A)

But (G)Lord I want to thank you for the (Bm)storm

I'm still (G)safe, se(A)cure, and (Bm)warm (A)

And (G)Lord I want to (A)thank You for the (D)storm
