The Reviews about Praise you in this storm (page 17/ 18)
------ performed by Casting Crowns
What an awesome message of an awesome God! | Reviewer: Ricky Reed | 6/27/06
I, like some of the others who have written their review, stop whatever I am doing every time this song comes on. Even the music when the song first starts gets my attention! It's like when the storm of life starts to toss its waves, and we're thrown into the middle of it, and don't feel like we're going to come back up again. It makes me remember the storms of my life that God has brought me through, and how when I thought He had forgotten me, that was when He was holding me the tightest. If anyone has ever had a child of their own, and saw their little finger print smudges left from long ago, and you are made to remember, I think that God leaves His smudges of His fingerprints on our own lives when we are in our storms. Thank you, my awesome Father, for being there in all my storms! And thank you for the times I prayed, when I thought you didn't hear me, YOU knew what was best for me. Thank you for my storms.
Thanks Casting Crowns!!! | Reviewer: Anonymous | 6/27/06
This song has meant so much to me for the past month. When i walked into the funeral of my sister's friend who was only sixteen, this song played over and over again until the funeral began. As i listened to the words and let "God hold all the tears that fell" it really showed me that my GOD is always there for me! This song is a reminder to me every time i hear it to pray for the family who lost their son. I just heard this song on the radio and came to this website to print off the lyrics. When i came i read all the other reviews and thought that i could atleast put in mine..since the others helped me!
weathering the storms of life and death | Reviewer: Anonymous | 6/26/06
This song has meant so much each time I hear it lately. Two very close people in my life have lost loved ones recently and the meaning of the lyrics here have had quite an impact. This is one of the most difficult things to do in life - to praise Him in the storms. Thanks for hearing the voice of the Lord.
Can't stop singing this song over and over | Reviewer: Grateful for this melody | 6/26/06
The first time I heard this beautiful song...I imagine the melody first caught my ear...but, then, each time I heard it I was able to pick up certain phrases, such as: "I barely hear Your whisper through the rain I'm with you..." and "Every tear I've cried You hold in Your hand You never left my side, and though my heart is torn"..., and finally, the way the singers hold on to the notes for "in this sto-r-m"...has such a heart-searching effect on me personally, that EVERY time I hear the song coming on my radio...I stop what I'm doing and bask in the melody and its message. The first time I listened to it completely...I found myself weeping like I did when I first received Jesus into my heart...now, I cannot get enough of that song. Thank you, Casting Crowns, for creating a song that pierces my heart and allows me worship God ... as the majestic love of my heart that He is.
Yes, I'll praise you in the storm | Reviewer: Anonymous | 6/26/06
This song is of comfort to my family, we have had 4 funerals, recently, in less than four weeks, It plays loudly around our home. It is important that we can praise God in the storms as well. God Bless You, Casting Crowns
Comforting | Reviewer: Eileen | 6/18/06
This song was of particular comfort for me when I lost my job. It put everything back into persepective for me, that God was still on the throne and in charge of my life. He blessed me with another job. Better than the one I lost! Funny how things like that can be a blessing in disguise!
Praissing God in this storm is all that I can do..till I meet him someday soon....:) | Reviewer: Jessica H. | 5/26/06

Love your #1 fan *Jessie*
a bold picture of God... | Reviewer: Daniel | 5/17/06
So many songs focus on the more "positive" aspects of God's nature; love, kindness, etc., but so few focus on the attributes of God that we'd so often like to ignore. God is love, yes, but He is also angry with the wicked. God is merciful, yes, but He is also jealous. God answers prayer, yes, but sometimes the answer is not what we want it to be. Praise the God who gives...and takes away. Praise the God who sends us blessing...and trial.
What about the REST of the message in this AWESOME song? | Reviewer: Jennifer | 5/1/06
This is an absolutely AWESOME SONG with many powerful messages encapsulated within it - one in particular that really hit my heart profoundly just this morning as the music director sang it was the message of "though my heart is torn, I will praise You in the storm" - WOW! Hearing those words forced me to acknowledge how seldom, if ever, I've praised God in and for the "storms" in my life, despite professing to be Christian for over 10 yrs.
In all honestly, my life more like the verse "But once again, I say 'Amen'
and it's still raining" because I get angry at God for not acknowledging my 'Amen' and quickly removing "the rain" and clearing up the 'storm' - as if God is obligated to "step in and save the day" simply because I lift my hands, shout a few good words about Him in His direction, and sing some nice worship songs. Far more times than I have been willing to acknowledge, God HAS "heard my cry and raised me up again" yet I continue to give credit only to my own self-determination, strength, tenacity, drive, and wisdom for surviving the storms. As if I REALLY had anything to do with it???
I was so in awe of God, more than ever, as I listened the director sing even though I've heard the song on the radio many, many times lately. I guess I hadn't *really* been paying attention to the 'message' while I'm singing along on the radio, in my car. Seeing the words in big bold letters projected and actually reading the message made all the difference this time!
I know I'm not "there" yet but I OH, how I long to someday be able to proclaim with genuine truth and sincerity that "though my heart is torn, I WILL and DO praise God even in the storm(s)." To me, THAT is the mark of a true Christian with a pure heart and what I'm striving for. It's one thing to just sing the words; it's totally another thing to have your life be evidence that you're actually living what you're saying or singing. Thanks to this song, however, for the first time in a LONG time (and maybe even ever) I have hope that I'll get "there" and it will be REAL! :-) Jeremiah 29: 11-13
Gives and takes away - He will be glorified | Reviewer: Jeff | 4/4/06
I don't get to see God's plan for me or for the world ahead of time. On my best day, I can catch a glimpse of God's plan and perhaps even see my role in it, for a moment. Faith is knowing that He is in control and He will be glorified regardless of my limited understanding. He does give and take away from us earthly things, things we can understand. We look for hidden meanings....(God is punishing me becasue I did.....) maybe He is, maybe He is using our experience to His glory in our lives, or in someone else's. Personally, I don;t believe in a God that is ready to pounce on me when I blow it. If that were the case, my oppression would be to much to bare.
My son has epilepsy. It started when he was 6. At that time, my wife and I were growing more distant from each other and from God. Looking back, it was this extreme that brought me to a place where I could say "I can't fix this! Oh God, You need to do this for me!" I said those words in context of my son's situation, but I heard them in context to my marriage.
My family is sronger than ever now. We sit and just talk sometimes about God's grace all around us. Did he inflict my son with epilepsy to get my attention? Maybe, I doubt it though. To my point, I don't know the plan, I just know that He has made a great thing out of a "taking away".
