Washed By The Water

Life can sometimes be stormy and rainy and sometimes it is difficult to see through all the water that seems to be coming up around me like a flood. There is an aspect of my life where the storm has carried on for a long time. Occasionally, days would look clear, but often times it resembled a rainforest, or maybe a monsoon. However I choose to describe it, the icky, muddy water coninued to surround me. But, even though not all days have been bright and sunny, my security in Christ has always been there. I know He is walking with me every step of the way.

The storms of life come and go. Sometimes there is even a flood. I am looking at sunnier days ahead, but when the thunder starts to roll again in the distance, if it looks like the clouds might be moving my direction, I know that I am washed clean in Jesus Christ.

Even when the rain falls
Even when the flood starts rising
Even when the storm comes
I am washed by the water

Even if the Earth crumbles under my feet
Even if the ones I love turn around and crucify me
I won’t never ever let you down
I won’t fall
I won’t fall
I won’t fall as long as you’re around me

Even when the rain falls
Even when the flood starts rising
Even when the storm comes
I am washed by the water
