Lyrics Mahalia Jackson

Mahalia Jackson

He Wants It That Way

Let it rain, rain, rain

He wants it that way

Let it pour, pour pour

He knows what it's for

When it lightens and it thunders

Do you ever stop and wonder

Why he said he wants it that way

Some may smile

While others may cry

All the while

He's watching on high

Count your blessings every hour

God is strong, and He's got power

Everyday, he wants it that way

He made the moon and stars

To lighten the darkest of night

Made the mighty sun and said

Let there be light

Never doubt him for one minute

Read the Good Book

All that's in it

And you'll say he wants it that way

(repeat again)
