Like a land ravaged by drought,
I see lightning and hear its shout
I dance and sing at the smell of rain,
But lie in the dust as the my thirst remains
I wonder if it will ever rain.

Where are you, where am I
What have I done tell me why
Give me hope and heal my pain
Dear God let it rain

I remember how you made me feel
How your touch gave me strength so real
You taught me to walk but now I've run
For so long I thought you were the one
I need you. Why did I run?

Where are you, where am I
What have I done tell me why
Give me hope and heal my pain
My God please let it rain.

Bring me Lord back to you
Bring me home where love it true
I see you there, arms open wide
I hear you calling "child come inside"
You lift me up as I strain
I feel the rain
