Pray For Rain

Born in a dry season

Wind and sand have blown through me

Haven't found shade anywhere

Only moments of relief

But sometimes I think I hear the thunder

Somewhere on the horizon line

If I could just find a way to get under

The rain that can reach this soul of mine

I pray for rain to come

And wash away what has made me numb

I pray for a raging storm

To drown what's in me

And the rain comes

In the nick of time

I swallow hard

'Cause my throat's been dry

The rain comes beating on my skin

Till I'm washed away

Nothing left within

When Your rain comes

Your rain comes

Seasons have passed so quickly

Since I felt that first big storm

Still there have been times of drought

When I've prayed for the clouds to form

And I often hear the thunder

And I know of its coming rain

Many times in my life I'll kneel under

The moving showers that brought this change

I pray for rain to come

And wash away what has made me numb

I pray for a raging storm

To drown what's in me

And the rain comes

In the nick of time

I swallow hard

'Cause my throat's been dry

The rain comes beating on my skin

Till I'm washed away

Nothing left within

When Your rain comes

Your rain comes

I pray for rain to come

And wash away what will make me numb

I pray for a raging storm

To drown what's in me

And the rain comes

In the nick of time

I swallow hard

'Cause my throat's been dry

The rain comes beating on my skin

Till I'm washed away

Nothing left within

When Your rain comes

Your rain comes
