Thanks Tank #13

All I've been able to think about today is the tragic death of Steven Curtis Chapman's youngest daughter who was adopted from China. So today my thanks tank is filled with my daughters. I'm so thankful for them. I'm thankful for their health and safety. I'm also thankful that in our sadness and despair Jesus is always there. I have posted the lyrics to the song Praise You in this Storm by Casting Crowns.

I Was Sure By Now

That You Would Have Reached Down

And Wiped Our Tears Away

Stepped In And Saved The Day

But Once Again, I Say "amen",

And It's Still Raining

As The Thunder Rolls

I Barely Hear Your Whisper Through The Rain

"i'm With You"

And As Your Mercy Falls

I Raise My Hands And Praise

The God Who GivesAnd Takes Away

I'll Praise You In This Storm

And I Will Lift My Hands

For You Are Who You Are

No Matter Where I Am

Every Tear I've Cried

You Hold In Your Hand

You Never Left My Side

And Though My Heart Is Torn

I Will Praise You In This Storm

I Remember When

I Stumbled In The Wind

You Heard My Cry

You Raised Me Up Again

My Strength Is Almost Gone

How Can I Carry On

If I Can't Find You

As The Thunder Rolls

I Barely Hear You Whisper Through The Rain

"i'm With You"

And As Your Mercy Falls

I Raise My Hands

And Praise The God Who Gives

And Takes Away

I Lift My Eyes Unto The Hills

Where Does My Help Come From?

My Help Comes From The Lord

The Maker Of Heaven And Earth
