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 pa**ing 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
