RAIN song lyrics by Joel Sattler, second version

 

New title “In the Rain”

 

 

 

 

Standing

here in the rain

Will I

ever be clean again?

 

Standing

here in the rain

Oh Lord

Will I ever be free of pain?

 

Standing

here in the rain

Make my

agony go away

 

Standing

here in the rain

All I can do is pray

 

Oh Lord

I was such a fool

In their

In their hands I was just a tool 

 

How was

How was I to know

One word

Just one word don’t make it so ?

 

Standing

here in the rain

Can you

hear what I say? 

 

Standing

here in the rain

Oh Lord

Take my fear and shame

 

Standing

here in the rain

I am

Merely what you ordain

 

Standing

here in the rain 

Wash me clean of the stain

 

Oh Lord

I was such a fool

In their

In their hands I was just a tool 

 

How was

How was I to know

One word

Just one word don’t make it so ?

 

Oh Lord

If thy will’s to be done

Take from

Take my hands from the gun

 

Oh lord

In thy kingdom to come

Judge me

Not for battles I may have won

 

Not for

The war that’s begun

Not for

The things I may have done

Not for

The crimes in the name of the Son

 

Oh Lord

If thy will’s to be done

Take from

Take my hands from the gun

 

Oh Lord

Oh please show me how

Where do

Where do I go now?

 

Save me

From this terrible day

Save me

Only you know the way

 

Oh Lord

If I’m what thee has made

Why am I so so afraid?

 

Oh Lord

I was such a fool

In their

In their hands I was just a tool 

 

How was

How was I to know

One word

Just one word don’t make it so ?

 

Oh Lord

If thy will’s to be done

Take from

Take my hands from the gun

 

Oh Lord

In thy kingdom to come

Judge me

Not for battles I may have won

 

Not for

The war that’s begun

Not for

The things I may have done

 

Oh Lord

In thy kingdom to come

Judge me

Not for battles I may have won

 

Not for

The war that’s begun

Not for

The things I may have done

 

Not for

for what the world has become
