When you see a typhoon

When you see a typhoon
Do you start to wonder
Is God really good
With pain do you ponder
Who would leave a child
Sitting on the street
His mum and Dad dead
And he has nothing to eat 

Do you begin to fear
That God isn't there
Or perhaps in worry think
He maybe just doesn't care
Are you able to give 
A reason for your hope
Or do the distant questions
In your mind make you not cope

Where can you go
When the answers fail
Where will you flee
When children look so pale 
No daily bread
Family all dead 
A stone for a pillow 
Cold ground for a bed 

The demons are howling 
Creation is groaning
The earth is shaking
The seas are moaning 
The King is coming 
The end is near
Now's the time 
To banish fear 

All is not 
As it appears
The righteous are being taken
To save them from tears
Of the time 
Of trouble awakening 
Be still as God in love
Is all things shaking 

This is the time
To know your God
This is the time
To feed on The Lord
This is the time
For faith to arise
To feed the orphans 
And heed their cries
