Story Behind The Song
I wrote this one for my husband after a particularly hard winter season. It was written when my husband and I went through a valley. Within a period of 3 years we had 2 car crashes, I lost my job after breaking my leg, and then we lost our house. Talk about testing, wow. But God was faithful, and led us through it and provided for our family the whole time. It was bittersweet, but He taught me how to lean on Him for strength and believe even when I couldn't see. Sometimes all we can do is stand and wait.

VERSE 1
When the money's gone and the bills come in
When the sky turns black and it's thundering
When it seems the only answer is to walk away
We're gonna forgive them anyway
CHORUS
We're gonna get through this
Hope is born in the midst of the storm
We're gonna get through this
Dig down deep and take my hand
Only together, we stand
VERSE 2
When the work is long and the pay is slow
When our hair turns gray cause we're getting old
When the kids move out to find their way
We're gonna love our life anyway
REPEAT CHORUS
BRIDGE
God is our light in these waves
Hope is our Anchor, we'll stay
REPEAT CHORUS
