LYRICS:
-

The storm was so fierce
It brought us great fear
The wind shook some homes
It pounded our ears
Some trees have gone down
Some lay on the streets
And roofs have come off
Was damage that great?
-
And people prayed hard
For help from above
For God's providence
To stop the storm's wrath
Please our dear God
Have mercy on us
Please give the command
For this storm to pass
-
Oh please pardon us
We don't pray enough
We wait till the risk
Is here upon us
Then we come to You
For some miracles
Oh please forgive us
Cause too late we call
-
How foolish we are
We act in this way
We wait till it's late
Then we kneel and pray
We want God to help
When it's very late
We trust He would come
And keep us all safe
-
But why can't we pray
On our bended knees
And call for God's help
Each and every day
