Raining in My Soul Lyrics

RAINING IN MY SOUL

Words and music by Mark Howard Bowles and Donnie Huffman

 

Lord, I’m standing here;

I’m no stranger to sin.

So many times, I pushed you away

But you always took me in.

I lived for earthly pleasures;

Relied on selfish goals;

But now I stand here empty

And it’s raining in my soul.

 

Chorus:

And it’s raining in my soul,

Raining in my soul.

Lord, please come down here;

Restore and make me whole.

‘Cause it’s raining in my soul,

Raining in my soul.

Lord, please send some sunshine

‘Cause it’s raining in my soul.

 

Sometimes I get so lonely

With people all around.

I look so hard for joy

But it just can’t be found.

I once walked with you Lord;

I even took your name;

But now I stand here broken;

I’m drenched in all my shame.

 

Chorus/instrumental/repeat chorus:

 

Optional third verse:

I went my selfish way

For pleasure, earthly gain;

And now, looking back on it,

It brought me tears and pain.

I need your spirit, Lord,

To fill my emptiness;

May the joy of my salvation

Return with happiness.
