well, given that as i type this, hurricane irene is already pounding the coast of north carolina and is carrying deep threats with it as it travels north east, i had wanted to make my saturday song be this song by waterdeep from the album "waterdeep worship" called when the cold wind blows. it's a song about how the circumstances of our lives (both good and bad) aren't an indication of whether or not God loves us. instead, it is God's presence with us in the midst of the storms of life that remind us that God still loves us. and yet, in the midst of the rising waters and cold winds, we, in our humanity, are still given to ask, "where are you, God? do you still love us?"
i hear the echo of God's answer to us in isaiah 43: I have called you by name; you are mine. When you go through deep waters, I will be with you. When you go through rivers of difficulty, you will not drown.
When the cold wind blows all around
Will you still love me?
still love me
When the cold wind blows all around
Will you still love me?
When the lightning crashes
Hopes are dashed and I
Am asking how this comes to me
and why
When no home on Earth can be found
Will you still love me?
still love me
When no home on Earth can be found
Will you still love me?
When you left us last time
You said You’d return
And I’m sorry that it
takes so long to learn
That my hope is to walk forever
in the coolness of the day
Oh my hope is to walk forever
in the coolness of the day
When the cold wind blows all around
You will still love me
still love me
When the cold wind blows all around
You will still love me
