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
 To refine the purest of kings
 And even though
 I know this fire brings me pain
 Even so
 And 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
 All 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 the eyes
 But they may as well all be in vain
 Even though
 I know these tears come with pain
 Even so
 And 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
 And the seas are full of water
 That stops by the shore
 Just like the riches of grandeur
 That never reach the poor
 And let the clouds fill with thunderous applause
 And let lightning be the veins
 And fill the sky
 With all that 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 vain
 Oh, Make it rain
 Make it rain
 Make in vain
 Make in vain
 Make in vain
 Make it rain
 Make in vain
 Make it vain
