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 pass 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
