I can't take another day here While I'm a long long way from home You know the desert isn't kind to anyone And I'm tired of bein' alone So let your love rain down on me Till it flows across the ground Lift my soul from the dead sea Let your love rain down on me I've been a man who carried his own weight Too proud to ask for help I pulled myself up by my own bootstraps But my soul got tired of the draught Let your love rain down on me Till it flows across the ground Lift my soul, lift it up from the dead sea Let your love rain on me I thought God was an invention of the week men The ones who needed a crutch But it was me who was the lame one I was the one who needed the touch I've gone as far as this boat can take me But I've still got a long way to row You can't float very far on dry land Only faith, only faith will make it go Let your love rain down on me Till it flows across the ground Lift my soul, lift my soul up from the dead sea Let your love rain down on me Let your love - let it rain down on me Till it flows across the ground Lift my soul, lift my soul up from the dead sea Let your love - let it rain down on me
