Make It Rain

When the sins of my father Weigh down in my soul And the pain of my mother Will not let me go Well, I know there can come fire from the sky To refine the purest of kings And even though I know this fire brings me pain Even so And just the same

Make it rain Make it rain down, Lord Make it rain Oh, make it rain Make it rain Make it rain down, Lord Make it rain Make it rain

All seed needs the water Before it grows out of the ground But it just keeps on getting hard And the hunger more profound Well, I know there can come tears from the eyes But they may as well all be in vain Even though I know these tears come with pain Even so And just the same

Make it rain Make it rain down, Lord Make it rain Oh, make it rain Make it rain Make it rain down, Lord Make it rain Make it rain

And the seas are full of water That stops by the shore Just like the riches of grandeur That never reach the poor

And let the clouds fill with thunderous applause And let lightning be the veins And fill the sky With all that they can drop When it's time To make a change

Make it rain Make it rain down, Lord Make it rain Make it rain Make it rain Make it rain down, Lord Make it rain Oh, Make it rain Make it rain? Make it rain? Make it rain? Oh, Make it rain Make it rain Make it rain down, Lord Make it vain Oh, Make it rain Make it rain Make in vain Make in vain Make in vain Make it rain Make in vain Make it vain Oh, Make in rain
