In the Middle of My Storm with God

The sky broke open with a roar

I fell to my knees on the forest floor

Raindrops heavy like a hymn unsung

The thunder spoke but it held no tongue

I asked the wind

Do You hear me now

The trees just swayed

They wouldn’t bow

In the middle of my storm with God

I’m shouting at the heavens

Calling Him fraud

But the silence

It’s deafening

It feels so odd

In the middle of my storm with God

Lightning flashes like a preacher’s glare

My heart’s on fire but there’s no one there

I toss my prayers like stones to the sea

They sink down deep

They don’t come back to me

The rain won’t answer

The clouds just stare

Is there a plan or do You even care

In the middle of my storm with God

I’m shouting at the heavens

Calling Him fraud

But the silence

It’s deafening

It feels so odd

In the middle of my storm with God
