Call it what you will, I call it rain When troubles come and pan against my soul Go in if you like, I will remain And let the washing waters make me whole Just when I'm sure that I can't bear the rain A tiny leaf starts pushing through the ground In a place where the soil was too dry to sustain it A new tiny flower can be found Once I was stuck, I thought things would never change And I watched that cloud pa** through the sky And right before my eyes it took a different shape And I knew, so would the clouds in my own life Just when I'm sure that I can't bear the rain A tiny leaf starts pushing through the ground In a place where the soil was too dry to sustain it A new tiny flower can be found And I see Him in the rain And I feel Him wash away What I do not understand So new life can spring up once again And I see Him in the rain And I feel Him wash away What I do not understand So new life can spring up once again And the flowers come to show That all that rain was helping me to grow
