Wonderland by Evgeni Dinev

“And he said to them, ‘Why are you afraid, O you of little faith?’ Then he rose and rebuked the winds and the sea, and there was a great calm. And the men marveled, saying, ‘What sort of man is this, that even winds and sea obey him?’” Matthew 8:26-27

When the storm clouds roll in,

When the raging winds blow,

When upon the windy gusts

The fallen leaves go –

 

I know I am safe,

For I am in Your arms;

Your strong embrace comforts,

It uplifts and it warms.

 

Jesus, You are with me

Both in sunshine and in rain;

Jesus, You are with me

In joy and in pain.

 

“Yes, daughter, I am with you,

Never to leave your side;

I live within your heart,

And in Me you abide.”

 

“Do not fear at all

When the winds do rage;

Am I not the King

Who reigns age to age?”

 

“Do not worry

When the rain begins to fall;

Am I not the Creator

Who made one and all?”

 

“Do not cower, child,

When the thunder roars;

See from My heart

How love and mercy pours?”

 

“Smile and rejoice,

Keep close and take heart;

Remember I am with you,

We will never part.”

 

“Did I not die for you

Upon the Cross of Calvary?

Will I not protect you

Now and for all eternity?”

 

Yes, Lord, I trust You,

In Your arms I will stay;

Nothing will harm me,

For You guide the way.

 

In Your strong arms

I am safe and secure;

You comfort with promises,

You warm with love pure.

 

So when storm clouds roll in,

When the raging winds blow,

When upon the windy gusts

The fallen leaves go –

 

I rejoice, for You are with me

In sunshine and in rain;

Jesus, Your sweet joy

Washes away all the pain.
