Let It Rain

(album: 2020 - 2020)

Ever since there was thunder
There's been shelter from the storm
A place to run for cover
Till the rain clouds had moved on
Now when I get that feeling
Before the first drop hits the ground
I'm asking, "Who's gonna stop the rain from falling down?"

Wherever there's a soldier
Who won't give up the fight
Wherever there's a darkness
That's trying to find the light
Wherever there is hurting
There is healing on the way
Like sunshine breaking through a cloudy day

Let it rain, let it rain
Let the rain fall all around
Who's gonna stop the rain from falling down?

Maybe someday eyes won't judge you
By the bed you're sleeping in
The God you want to pray to
Or the color of your skin
When priests and politicians
Sell the truth and nothing more
That day we'll know what all of this was for

Let it rain, let it rain
Let the rain fall all around
Who's gonna stop the rain from falling down?

These ain't pretty pictures that we're keeping in the cloud
Outside a storm is raging
Just take a look around

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 churchbell
That's summoning the choir
Somewhere there's a dreamer
Who would walk 1, 000 miles
Somewhere there's a dreamer
Who would walk 1, 000 miles

Let it rain, let it rain
Let the rain fall all around
Who's gonna stop the rain from falling?
If you're out there, Christ I'm calling
Who's gonna stop the rain from falling down?
