Day by day, I'm learning how to stay
In the middle of the storm
I'm learning where to lay my head
And step by step, I'm learning how to listen
In the middle of the noise
I will listen for Your still small voice
So let the thunder roll
And I won't be afraid, 'cause You roll the thunder
And let the rain beat hard
Upon my roof, and I'll dance to it's rhythm
And let the mighty wind
Blow between the oak trees
As I let You steady me
'Cause You're right here in the whisper
Of my heart
Breath by breath, I'm learning what You say
When You told me I could trust
Even when the storm is raging on
And song by song, I will sing of your great love
While You're singing it back to me
With the very voice that calmed the sea
So let the thunder roll
And I won't be afraid, 'cause You roll the thunder
And let the rain beat hard
Upon my roof, and I'll dance to it's rhythm
And let the mighty wind
Blow between the oak trees
As I let You steady me
'Cause You're right here in the whisper
You're right here
So say peace be still
To every beat of my heart
So say peace be still
To every thought in my head
I know your voice, and I will listen and obey
Every time you call, in the night
So let the thunder roll
And I won't be afraid, 'cause You roll the thunder
And let the rain beat hard
Upon my roof, and I'll dance to it's rhythm
And let the mighty wind
Blow between the oak trees
As I let You steady me
'Cause You're right here in the whisper
You're right here in the whisper
You're right here in the whisper
Of my heart
"In The Whisper" by Christy Nockels is a beautiful song that speaks to the heart and reminds us of God's presence in the midst of the storms of life. The lyrics are filled with hope, encouragement, and a deep longing to hear God's still small voice.
The song begins with the line, "Day by day, I'm learning how to stay, in the middle of the storm." This immediately sets the tone for the rest of the song, as it acknowledges the reality that life can be difficult and filled with challenges. However, it also speaks to the desire to find peace and rest in the midst of those storms. It reminds us that no matter what we are facing, we can find solace and strength by laying our heads in the arms of God.
As the song progresses, it talks about the importance of listening to God's voice. It says, "Step by step, I'm learning how to listen, in the middle of the noise." This line resonates with anyone who has ever struggled to hear God's voice amidst the chaos and distractions of life. It reminds us that in order to truly hear God, we must intentionally quiet our hearts and minds and tune in to His still small voice.
The chorus of the song is a powerful declaration of trust and surrender. It says, "So let the thunder roll, and I won't be afraid, 'cause You roll the thunder. And let the rain beat hard upon my roof, and I'll dance to its rhythm. And let the mighty wind blow between the oak trees, as I let You steady me, 'cause You're right here in the whisper of my heart." These words serve as a reminder that even in the midst of the storm, God is with us. He is the one who controls the thunder, the rain, and the wind. And as we surrender to Him, we can find peace and joy even in the midst of life's trials.
This theme of surrender and trust is beautifully expressed in the bridge of the song. It says, "So say peace be still, to every beat of my heart. So say peace be still, to every thought in my head. I know your voice, and I will listen and obey, every time you call, in the night." These words echo the biblical passage in Mark 4:39, where Jesus calms the storm by saying, "Peace, be still." They remind us that we can trust in God's power to bring peace to our hearts and minds, even in the midst of chaos.
"In The Whisper" is a song that speaks to the deep longing within all of us to find peace, rest, and guidance in the arms of our Heavenly Father.
