Till the Storm passes by.

In the dark of the midnight have I oft hid my face,
While the storm howls above me, and there's no hiding place.
"Mid the crash of the thunder, precious Lord, hear me cry;
Keep me safe til the storm passes by.

Many times Satan whispered, "There is no need to try,
For there's no end of sorrow, there's no hope by and by."
But I know Thou art with me, and tomorrow I'll rise
Where the storms never darken the skies.

When the long night has ended and the storm comes no more,
Let me stand in Thy presence, on that bright, peaceful shore.
In that land where the tempest never comes,
Lord, may I Dwell with Thee when the storm passes by.

'Til the storm passes over,
'til the thunder sounds no more,
'Til the clouds roll forever from the sky,
Hold me fast,
let me stand in the hollow of Thy hand,
Keep me safe 'til the storm passes by.

Thanks for posting Mosie Lister's fine gospel song. (Today is actually his 88th birthday, if he is still with us.) To find out more about him and the song, I invite you to check out my blog, Wordwise Hymns.
