Let it rain, let it rainOpen the floodgates of HeavenLet it rain, let it rainOpen the floodgates of HeavenThe Lord reigns, let the earth be gladLet the distance shores rejoiceClouds and thick darkness surround HimRighteousness and justice are the foundation of His throneA fire goes before Him and consumes His foes on every sideHis lightning lights up the worldThe earth sees and tremblesThe mountains melt like wax before the LordBefore the Lord of all the earthThe Heavens proclaim His righteousnessAnd all peoples will see His gloryWe want to see Your glory, God!Do you want to see His glory?Lift your voices, lift your hands!Let it rain, let it rainOpen the floodgates of HeavenLet it rain, let it rainOpen the floodgates of HeavenLet it rain, let it rain
