(Sung to the tune of Leonard Cohen)
I’ve heard it said when storms may come, that some may panic, some may run, But they don’t know the power that comes from You. For in the midst of wind and wave, We find the strength to still be brave, For You can save, so we’ll sing hallelujah!
Hallelujah, hallelujah! Hallelujah, hallelujah!
Though twisters came and waters rose, And nature threw its cruelest blows, In everything we heard the voice of You: “Fear not,” You said, “My peace I give,” “I will be with you; you will live To sing my praise again, O hallelujah!”
Hallelujah, hallelujah! Hallelujah, hallelujah!
And so in all the days ahead, We’ll turn to You, our Living Head, Whatever comes we’ll put our trust in You. In sunny days and darkest night, With You we’ll stand and win the fight, And sing with voices bright, O hallelujah!
Hallelujah, hallelujah! Hallelujah, hallelujah!
Thank you, dear brother, I will use it tomorrow in the preaching / prayer time. Abiding prayer for the people , ALL the people , the churches in Texas and our siblings in India and Bangladesh .
