Hi SongInMyHeart,

That is the first one by Lynual Younce

However, I really like the second version, with Allison Whitsel, too.

Thanks For The Storm - Lynual Younce
(Corrections are appreciated)

When the sun finally broke through the clouds
I hadn't felt Him for so long
And I wondered why the storm.
What have I done wrong
But He can see much farther down the road
I could have taken a wrong turn
So He took the music from my song
He sent me His storm

Chorus
So thanks for the storm.
The pain makes me grow
The wind helped blow my pride away
Thunder and lightning made me pray
It wasn't that I'd sinned or done somebody wrong
He just knew what would be best for me
So He sent me His storm

While in my valley of despair
I couldn't find Him anywhere
It was though Heaven shut its door
I didn't think He loved me anymore
But I found out that I was wrong
This trial meant me no harm
He just wanted me closer to Him
So He sent me His storm

It's a blessing when I see the dark clouds parting
When the rain is gone and the sun is breaking through
I anticipate when life will just be normal
Just to close my weary eyes and rest in You

My heart can rest so easy when there's blue skies
When the wind is gone and rain is not in sight
Oh How I long to hang my sword above the mantel
Away from harm and distant from the fight

But I wouldn't know Your peace without the hard times
Or be thankful for relief without the pain
Wouldn't love the light if it were not for darkness
Or appreciate the sun without the rain

How could I understand forgiveness without failure
or feel the warmth love without the bitter cold
How could I hold Your healing hands without affliction
And be blessed to see Your mercies all unfold

Sure it's a blessing to be safe, secure and warm
Lord I want to thank You for the storm

I can imagine as old Peter sat in prison
He may have paced the floors with chains around his feet
And in his mind the devil taunted as he was spurned
This battle's lost and this is your defeat

But then his thoughts went back to that night in the tempest
When The Master spoke and the winds and sea obeyed
As he remembered that storm calming all around him
He could rest in that dark prison unafraid

And say

But I wouldn't know Your peace without the hard times
Or be thankful for relief without the pain
Wouldn't love the light if it were not for darkness
Or appreciate the sun without the rain

How could I understand forgiveness without failure
or feel the warmth love without the bitter cold
How could I hold Your healing hands without affliction
And be blessed to see Your mercies all unfold

Sure it's a blessing to be safe, secure and warm
Lord I want to thank You for the storm


If my life was free of trials Lord I'd lose my view of You
Ther're sweet trophies that remind me of all You do
Sure it's a blessing to be safe, secure and warm
But Lord I want to thank You for the storm
