Let It Rain

[Verse 1]

Ever since there was thunder

There's been shelter from the storm

A place to run for cover

'Til the rain clouds had moved on

Now when I get that feelin'

Before the first drop hits the ground

I'm askin', "Who's gonna stop the rain from fallin' down?"

[Verse 2]

Wherever there's a soldier

Who won't give up the fight

Wherever there's a darkness

That's tryin' to find the light

Wherever there is hurtin'

There's healing on the way

Like sunshine breakin' through a cloudy day

[Chorus]

Let it rain, let it rain

Let the rain fall all around

Who's gonna stop the rain from fallin' down?

[Verse 3]

Maybe someday, eyes won't judge you

By the bed you're sleepin' in

The God you wanna pray to

Or the color of your skin

When priests and politicians

Tell the truth and nothin' more

That day, we'll know what all of this was for

[Chorus]

Let it rain, let it rain

Let the rain fall all around

Who's gonna stop the rain from fallin' down?

[Bridge]

These ain't pretty pictures that we're keepin in the cloud

Outside, a storm is raging

Just take a look around

[Verse 4]

Somewhere, there's forgiveness

For the broken ones like me

Who once stared down mighty mountains

And now sit beneath the trees

And somewhere, there's a church bell

That's summoning the choir

Somewhere, there's a dreamer

Who would walk a thousand miles

Somewhere, there's a dreamer

Who would walk a thousand miles

[Chorus]

Let it rain, let it rain

Let the rain fall all around

Who's gonna stop the rain from fallin'?

If you're out there, Christ, I'm calling

Who's gonna stop the rain from fallin' down?
