Lyrics

Every day you are shown the face of your own future.
Endless days filled with joy, and love, and peace forever.
Every way, you have seen the evil vision started.
Endless ways, filled with hateful schemes to hit their targets.

Hate comes like cold rain in the middle of the night.
But love comes like sunshine to warm you up inside,
To keep the fire alive, to keep the rain outside.

Joy comes on the morning after the cold, cold rain.
Sun shines on the land to answer the cold, cold rain.
Love warms all the chilling waters of the cold, cold rain.
Life longs for all freedom offers through the cold, cold rain.      
The cold, cold rain.

Every day you find ways to help the ones who suffer.
Endless days filled with hope of something more to offer.
Every way, you give all your love to help the children.
Endless ways, using all your gifts as tools for freedom.

Joy comes on the morning after the cold, cold rain.
Sun shines on the land to answer the cold, cold rain.
Love warms all the chilling waters of the cold, cold rain.
Life longs for all freedom offers through the cold, cold rain.      
The cold, cold rain.
