In the eye of the storm You remain in control And in the middle of the war You guard my soul You alone are the anchor When my sails are torn Your love surrounds me In the eye of the storm When the solid ground is falling out from underneath my feet Between the black skies, and my red eyes, I can barely see When I realize I've been sold out by my friends and my family I can feel the rain reminding me In the eye of the storm, You remain in control In the middle of the war, You guard my soul You alone are the anchor, when my sails are torn Your love surrounds me In the eye of the storm Mmm, when my hopes and dreams are far from me And I'm runnin' out of faith I see the future I picture slowly fade away And when the tears of pain and heartache Are pouring down my face I find my peace in Jesus' name In the eye of the storm (yeah, yeah) You remain in control (yes you do, Lord) In the middle of the war You guard my soul You alone are the anchor When my sails are torn Your love surrounds me (Your love surrounds me) In the eye of the storm (in the eye of the storm) When the test comes in and the doctor says I've only got a few months left It's like a bitter pill I'm swallowing I can barely take a breath And when addiction steals my baby girl And there's nothing I can do My only hope is to trust You I trust You, Lord In the eye of the storm (yeah, yeah) You remain in control In the middle of the war (middle of the war) You guard my soul (yeah!) You alone are the anchor When my sails are torn Your love surrounds me (yeah!) In the eye of the storm You remain in control (yes you do, Lord) In the middle of the war (in the middle of the war) You guard my soul You alone are the anchor When my sails are torn Your love surrounds me In the eye of the storm Oh, in the eye of Lord, in the eye of the storm I know You're watching me, yeah Ay When the storm is raging (when the storm is raging) And my hope is gone (and my hope is gone, Lord) When my flesh is failing You're still holding on, oh whoa When the storm is raging (the storm is raging) And my hope is gone (and all my hope is gone) When my flesh is failing (my flesh is failing) You're still holding on, ooh When the storm is raging (when the storm is raging) And my hope is gone (and my hope is gone) Even when my flesh is failing (flesh is failing) You're still holding on, holding on The Lord is my Shepherd I have all that I need He let's me rest in green meadows He leads me beside peaceful streams He renews my strength He guides me along right paths, bringing honor to His Name Even when I walk through the darkest valley, I will not be afraid For You are close beside me
