Call it what you will, I call it rain

When troubles come and pan against my soul

Go in if you like, I will remain

And let the washing waters make me whole



Just when I’m sure that I can’t bear the rain

A tiny leaf starts pushing through the ground

In a place where the soil was too dry to sustain it

A new tiny flower can be found



Once I was stuck, I thought things would never change

And I watched that cloud pass through the sky

And right before my eyes it took a different shape

And I knew, so would the clouds in my own life



Just when I’m sure that I can’t bear the rain

A tiny leaf starts pushing through the ground

In a place where the soil was too dry to sustain it

A new tiny flower can be found



And I see Him in the rain

And I feel Him wash away

What I do not understand

So new life can spring up once again



And I see Him in the rain

And I feel Him wash away

What I do not understand

So new life can spring up once again



And the flowers come to show

That all that rain was helping me to grow
