about

Eye of the Storm is all about finding that place of peace even when the world is going crazy around you. Think of it as the musical equivalent of a good massage.

EYE OF THE STORM
Music & lyrics by John de Jong. (c) 2003 John de Jong. All rights reserved.

In these days of so much change
Old foundations wash away
As your river comes
Swollen by the rain
In these days when hearts grow cold
As the wind begins to blow
I know I must run
To the shelter of your arms
To the shadow of your wings
To the beating of your heart

Close to you I ride the wind
Flying high on eagle’s wings
Supernatural calm
In the eye of the storm

All around the wind howls like a demon
Yet here I am in a vortex of pure calm
The eye of the storm

Every promise that you’ve made
Every word you’ve ever said
Will not pass away
Until it’s played it’s part
Now I know the time has come
To shake the heavens and the earth
I know I must run
To the shelter of your arms
To the shadow of your wings
To the beating of your heart
