Let the Rain Fall Down - Bonus Track

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 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, 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

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

Oh let the rain fall, let it fall on me
Oh 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 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

Oh heavenly Father
Help me thine to be
You let the rain fall on the quick and the dead
So let the rain fall down on me

Let it fall

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, the moon is turning red

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

Dearest Father
Help me thine to be
You know the rain falls on the quick and the dead
So let the rain fall down on me

Let the rain fall down on me
Let it fall on me
Let it fall on me

Let this good life be the life we lead
Let our faith grow like a mustard seed
Let his love be all the love we need
To carry us all the way home
