Before it clears

Before it clears

by Joel Howard

I stop

Here on this side of this pain

I still

While the clouds still remain

I wait

Before I can see it all

On this side, Lord

On this side, God

I thank you

Until my tears finish falling

I praise you

For the glory of the calling

I cling to you

Before I can see you move

On this side, King

On this side, Spirit

Before it clears

Before the sky clears

Through these tears

Through these tears

I cling to you

Before it clears

Before it clears

I cling to you

I shall return 

I come home

Before you roll away the stone

Before you me resurrect

Before I see justice met

Yet before it clears

Before the sky clears

I watch

Here inside the battle

I cry out

While the storm still remains

I reach out

Before I can see it all

On this side, Jesus

On this side, God

I sing to you

With tears still falling

I glorify you

For your face here with me

I hold onto you

Before I can see you move

On this side, Friend

On this side, LORD
