Larry Norman - Let The Rain Fall Down - [Live 2005]

LARRY NORMAN -- LET THE RAIN FALL DOWN -- (ACOUSTIC LIVE AT THE ELSINORE 2005) -- Towards the end, Larry toured even though very sick as he was determined to share the gospel even to the day he died. With his illness he would forget verses from songs he sang and would even ask the crowds to help him in humor. Larry was born on April 8th, 1947 and died on February 24th, 2008 aged 60.

LYRICS:

My woman left me,
Felt like she left me for another man
You know it came as some surprise,
It wasn't in my plan
She never told me nothing was wrong,
She never gave me a clue
One morning there was a knock on the door
And I found out we were through.

And as I stood there with the paper in my hand
I found myself transported into another land.

Heavenly Father, help me thine to be
You let the rain fall on the good and the bad
So let the rain fall down on me.

As through this life you ramble
As through this world you roam
You might live in a lot of houses
But never find a home.

As down the roads you wander
And through broken fields you cross
You must never stop believing
For all is not lost.

And don't you worry 'bout the
Unfaithful lovers and false friend
'Cause the love that you have given them
That's all that matters in the end.

Heavenly Father, thou who all doth see
You let the rain fall on the quick and the dead
So let the rain fall down on me.

I didn't know you were my father,
I thought you were the hanging judge,
And when I came into your courtroom
I thought you'd hold a grudge.
I thought I was a worthless servant
I didn't know I was your son
And I didn't know you had forgiveness
For everything that I had done.

This world is stumbling,
Your kingdom is at hand
Give me the strength to live
For one day longer to make a stand.

There's gonna be a collision
This world is going fast
A mortgaged future
Meets a bankrupt past.

A change is coming and people
They a slumbering in their beds
Storm clouds will bring the rain
And the moon will turn blood red.

Heavenly Father, thou who all doth see
You let the rain fall on the good and the bad
So let the rain fall on me.

Dearest Father, thou who all doth see
You let the rain fall on the quick and the dead
So let the rain fall down on me.

Let it fall on me
Let it fall on me

And let this good life be the life we lead
Let our faith grow like a mustard seed
And let Your love be all the love we need
To carry us all the way home.

[dsmit902]

thanks very much for taking the time to copy out the words to this song! good stuff! thanks again

Seeking heaven is the devil's illusion so don't fear doubt.

It inspires questions you need if you haven't lost your nerve.

Ask Christ what he would do then line it up with ALL his words.

You'll miss-it by light years but "GRACE" (Unmerited favour) kicks-in.

Unless you've swapped courage for comfort in which case you're screwed...

Prophets & righteous little peeps find sanctuary in the darkness & not paradise.

The "BAPTISM OF FIRE" post supernova will light it up enough for your rescue...

Thank you very much... Greg
