Let The Rain Fall Down Lyrics

My woman left me, felt like she left me for another man
You know it came as some surprise, it wasn't in the plan
She never told me nothing was wrong, she didn't give me a clue
But one morning there was a knock on the door

And I found out we were through
I saw my future fading and with the papers in my hand
I found myself transported into this desert land

My feet are burning, the hour is getting late
My journey is much too long and time will not wait
So Heavenly Father, thou who all doth see
You let the rain fall down on the good and the bad
So let the rain fall down on me

As through this life you ramble and through this world you roam
You might live in a lot of places and never find your home

As down the road you wander and through the open fields you cross
You must never stop believing for all is not lost

And don't worry 'bout the unfaithful lover and false friend
For the love that you have given is what matters in the end

So Heavenly Father, thou who all doth see
You let the rain fall down on the good and the bad
So let the rain fall down on me

Life is complicated, very hard to live
I try to turn my cheek to everything my enemies give I've got a lot of compassion for the sinners and the slaves
I've got a message for those not in their graves

He will cover you with water and baptize your pain
If you let his power wash you clean and soothe your fevered brain
So Heavenly Father, help me thine to be
You let the rain fall down on the quick and the dead
So let the rain fall down on me

I didn't know you were my father
I thought you were the hanging judge
And when I came into your courtroom
I thought you'd hold a grudge

I thought I was a lowly servant
I didn't know I was your son
And I didn't know you had forgiveness
For anything I might have done

This world is crumbling, your kingdom is at hand
Give me the strength to live and help me to stand

There's gonna be a collision, the world is going fast
A mortgaged future meets a bankrupt past

A change is coming and people slumber in their bed
Storm clouds are bringing rain and the moon is turning red

Heavenly Father, thou who all doth see
You let the rain fall down on the quick and the dead
So let the rain fall down on me
