When The Storm Winds Rage, And The Rain Falls Fast,
And The Clouds Hang Low Above,
I Shall Be Secure Till The Storm Is Past,
For I Trust My Savior’s Love;
And He Knows The Way, And He Holds My Hand,
And He Will Not Let It Go;
He Will Lead Me Home To That Better Land,
Just Because He Loves Me So.

It Was Not That I Was So Good Or Great,
For My Heart Was Vile With Sin;
I Had Turned My Back On The Narrow Gate,
Neither Care Nor Lived For Him,
But I Pleased Myself, And I Chose My Way,
For His Grace I Did Not Know;
But He Sought Me Still Through The Night And Day,
Just Because He Loved Me So.

If He Loved Me So When I Grieved Him Sore
That He Sought Me Tenderly,
Till He Won My Heart, And My Sins He Bore,
So That I His Child Might Be,
Will He Love Me Less Since I Love Him, Too,
So My Heart With Fervor Glows?
And I Haste Each Day All His Will To Do
That My Willing Spirit Knows.

I Will Trust His Love, For It E’er Will Last,
It Is Rich And Warm And Free;
Through The Years Of Life It Will Hold Me Fast,
And My Help And Comfort Be;
To My Waiting Heart All Its Treasures Rare
As A Sparkling Stream Shall Flow;
In The Joy Of God I Shall Ever Share,
Just Because He Loves Me So.
