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

Till we find the purest of kings

Even though I know this fire brings me pain

Even so, I'm 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



The 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 their eyes

But they may as well be in vain

Even though I know these tears come with pain

Even so, I'm 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

Just make it rain

Make it rain



And the seas are full of water

Stops by the shore

Just like the riches of grandeur

Oh, no no, never reach the poor



And let the clouds fill with thunderous applause

And let lightning be the veins

Fill the sky with all 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 rain

Oh, make it rain



Make it rain

Make it rain

Make it rain

Make it rain



Make it rain

Make it rain

Make it rain

Oh, make it rain
