After the Rain
Song by Ben Bostick
Rain on me, you stormy skies, wash my sins away
Let the thunder roll, let the lightning strike until I’m clean again
Moonshine bright behind the clouds, but don’t you show your face
'Till I’m clean by and by and I’m free from earthly trials
When I’m new again after the rain
After the rain, when the clouds roll away
When my skin is soaked through with water
When the pain is awful great, I can face the coming days
When I’m new again after the rain
When I come or go, to the west, to the east, over the mountain or over the sea
It don’t matter where I am, I will be a happy man if those clouds just follow me
Someone said to me, you’re a fool to wait. I will take you down to the river
And the stream will wash away all the pain of yesterday
I said, thanks, but I’ll just wait for the rain
After the rain, when the clouds roll away
When my skin is soaked through with water
When my legs can’t hold their weight, when I’m waiting for my fate I’ll be new again after the rain
I don’t know what Jesus said, he never spoke to me
But I thank the sky above for pouring down her holy love
To save a wretch like me
After the rain, when the clouds roll away
When my skin is soaked through with water
When the night won’t turn to day, when the pain is awful great
I’ll be new again after the rain
Let the thunder roll, let the lightning strike until I’m clean again
Moonshine bright behind the clouds, but don’t you show your face
'Till I’m clean by and by and I’m free from earthly trials
When I’m new again after the rain
After the rain, when the clouds roll away
When my skin is soaked through with water
When the pain is awful great, I can face the coming days
When I’m new again after the rain
When I come or go, to the west, to the east, over the mountain or over the sea
It don’t matter where I am, I will be a happy man if those clouds just follow me
Someone said to me, you’re a fool to wait. I will take you down to the river
And the stream will wash away all the pain of yesterday
I said, thanks, but I’ll just wait for the rain
After the rain, when the clouds roll away
When my skin is soaked through with water
When my legs can’t hold their weight, when I’m waiting for my fate I’ll be new again after the rain
I don’t know what Jesus said, he never spoke to me
But I thank the sky above for pouring down her holy love
To save a wretch like me
After the rain, when the clouds roll away
When my skin is soaked through with water
When the night won’t turn to day, when the pain is awful great
I’ll be new again after the rain
