after the storm has come and gone after the wind has already blown after the clouds have cleared the sky god s going to wipe these tears from my eyes after the storm there have been days when i hurt so bad the load on my shoulder seems much more than i could stand and there have been times when the pain inside was so severe i just sit alone and cry then a voice spoke to me it was ever so gently saying you re going to make it through the storm hovering over you after the storm has come and gone after the wind has already blown after the clouds have cleared the sky god s going to wipe these tears from my eyes after the storm these heartaches i feel are just temporary the storm is passing over i see the sun breaking through the clouds there s a new day coming and it won t be long there ll be a rainbow in the sky i ll have a brand new song i ll shout my troubles over and rejoice in victory i m going to sail on peaceful shore there ll be a brighter day for me i ve got to keep my head up high no matter how hard it seems i ve gotta keep on pressin my way though the road s been rough for me said i will not i shall not i just can t give up the race god is on my side it s gonna be alright the storm has come and gone
