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 rest of kings
And ever though
I know this fire brings me pain
Even so
And just the same
Make it rain
Make it rain down low
Make it rain
Oh make it rain
Make it rain
Make it rain down low
Make it rain
Make it rain
And the seed needs the water
Before it grows out
Of the ground
But it just keeps on
Getting hotter
The hunger more pro found
Well I know there can
Come tears from their eyes
But they may as well
Be in vain
And even though
I know these tears
Come with pain
Even so
And just the same
Make it rain
Make it rain down low
Make it rain
Oh make it rain
Make it rain
Make it rain down low
Just make it rain
Make it rain
And the seas are full of water
That stop by the shore
Just like the riches of grandeur
Oh oh oh
Never reach the port
And let the claps fill
With thunderous applause
And let light nings
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 low
Make it rain
Make it rain
Make it rain
Make it rain down low
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 low
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
