It’s Beginning to Rain
The turtledove is singing its sweet song of morning
The leaves on the trees turn their silver cups to the sky
The silent clouds above are beginning to gather
The barren land is thirsty, and so am I
It's beginning to rain, rain, rain, hear the voice of the Father
Saying, “Whosoever will, come drink of this water
I promise to pour My Spirit out on your sons and your daughters
If you’re thirsty and dry, look up to the sky
It’s beginning to rain"
The young man’s eyes start to shine as he tells of his vision
The old ones understand what he sees
For they’ve dreamed their dreams
With the thrill of being alive
They reach for each other
Just watch 'em as they dance in the rain
With the joy of the things that they have seen
At the first drop of rain that you hear, throw open the windows
Go call all your children together and throw wide the door
When the rains of the Spirit are falling, fill every vessel
For he who drinks his fill, will thirst no more
It's beginning to rain, rain, rain, hear the voice of the Father
Saying, “Whosoever will, come drink of this water
I promise to pour my spirit out on your sons and your daughters
If you're thirsty and dry, look up to the sky
It's beginning to rain"
It's beginning to rain, rain, rain, hear the voice of the Father
Saying whosoever will, come and drink from this water
I promise to pour my spirit our on your sons and your daughters
If you're thirsty and dry, look up to the sky
It's beginning to rain
It's beginning to rain
It's beginning to rain
