Rain So Hard

 

Chorus

I’ve seen lightning that could blind the eyes.

I’ve heard thunder that would shake the skies.

I’ve watched white clouds turn coal-black dark.

But I never thought it could rain so hard.

 

Verse 1

Down and down, the rain came down.

It soaked me to my bones.

For days and days I felt it pound.

But it couldn’t wash this pain from my soul.

 

Repeat Chorus

 

Verse 2

I cried make it stop, dear God make it stop.

Or else I know I will drown.

I can’t take another drop.

That’s when the sun came out.

 

Final Chorus

Now I see sunlight and it soothes my eyes.

Pouring down from a faded denim sky.

A cloud’s been lifted that was coal-black dark

And brought an end to a rain so hard.

I pray I never again see it rain so hard.
