You look up at the sky and wonder if He really hears You want to ask Him why His plan could ever bring such pain When it feels your hope is gone You hear a whisper in the rain It's just the storm before the calm It's just the darkness before the dawn When the wind is raging, keep holding on 'Cause it's just the storm, it's just the storm Before the calm I've tried and tried to find the message in the sand But these tears I cry just wash away all I understand Oh, I'm falling on my knees Lord will you tell me please that It's just the storm before the calm It's just the darkness before the dawn When the water's rising, keep holding strong 'Cause it's just the storm, it's just the storm Before the calm ♪ The Holy Spirit whispers, "This will all be for your good." But you can't help but wonder how it ever could, how it ever could But remember the garden where blood did fall The God of Heaven suffered it all Your pain's like the empty tomb before her name He called It's a miracle, it's a miracle that It's just the storm before the calm It's just the darkness before the dawn When you're heart is breaking, leap into His arms It's just the storm, it's just the storm Before the calm
