Worship dance improvisation -Praise You in this Storm- by Casting Crowns

My first improvisational praise, that I bear to watch myself ,heh (.. even there is many things I want to prove in my technique)..in the first place I ment to share this with my friends .. but 'the story of this clip' might be an encouragement to someone here...would love to hear if so:)..and hopefully makes me practice more :D I just started to learn jazz and ballet..and serve God with dance..so I have A LOT to learn :D

The most interesting with this clip was, that somehow I knew that God wants me to worship Him by dance..but I asked God to tell me if He REALLY wants me to do it by dance, cos I was not satisfied with my improvisational clips..so I was kind of feeling to quit at that moment...
then I decided to praise God for who He is even I didn't have any feelings to worship and the song was very new to me ...and I got this clip and found a direction, I hope my improvisation will continue in the future..SO DON'T GIVE UP BEFORE ASKING GOD, HE IS FULL OF SURPRISES :)

well the biggest surprise is that I dance at all..I was so cleverly convinced that dancing is a sin until I begin to doubt it in my adulthood and only half year ago I really thought..maybe it's not too late to develop myself in dance :D


I was sure by now,God, that You would have reached down
and wiped our tears away,
stepped in and saved the day.
But once again, I say amen
and it's still raining
as the thunder rolls
I barely hear You whisper through the rain,
"I'm with you"
and as Your mercy falls
I raise my hands and praise
the God who gives and takes away.

Chorus:
And I'll praise you in this storm
and I will lift my hands
for You are who You are
no matter where I am
and every tear I've cried
You hold in your hand
You never left my side
and though my heart is torn
I will praise You in this storm

I remember when I stumbled in the wind
You heard my cry to You
and raised me up again
my strength is almost gone how can I carry on
if I can't find You
and as the thunder rolls
I barely hear You whisper through the rain
"I'm with you"
and as Your mercy falls
I raise my hands and praise
the God who gives and takes away

Chorus

I lift my eyes onto the hills
where does my help come from?
My help comes from the Lord, the maker of heaven and earth
I lift my eyes onto the hills
where does my help come from?
My help comes from the Lord, the maker of heaven and earth

I just wanted to say that you inspired me to do my first solo for the women's retreat in my church. I danced for the world and a good dancer I was. However, I put my dancing shoes away in 2003. I believe God has been tugging at my heart to dance for him just like I danced for satan. I prayed that God would give me dance. Then, I saw your clip...you blew me away. Keep doing the good work of the Lord!

@nanziva: Thank you so much for telling, that's wonderful ! I'm very happy to hear that God used my clip for you. Great news! May God lead us in the right place and time with the dance! :-) Stay blessed :-)
