Looks like tonight, the sky is heavy
Feels like the winds are gonna change
Beneath my feet, the earth is ready
I know its time for heaven’s rain, it’s gonna rain
It’s gonna rain, again
Cos it’s living water we desire
To flood our hearts with holy fire
Rain down all around the world we’re singing
Rain down can you hear the earth is singing
Rain down my heart is dry but still I’m singing
Rain down rain it down on me
Back to the start, my heart is heavy
Feels like it’s time, to dream againI hear your voice, and yes I’m ready
To dance upon this barren land
Hope in my hands
Do not shut, Do not shut, Do not shut the heavens
But open up, open up, open up our hearts
Give me strength to cross the water
Keep my heart upon your altar
Give me strength to cross this water
Keep my feet don’t let me falter

Behind the Song:'This song started life as a Stu G. guitar riff and immediately inspired the Rain Down melody and lyric whilst jamming in a sound check. We were in America at the time touring and I'd gone for a walk to get some fresh air before the gig. As I walked the biggest, blackest storm cloud hung above me. 'Looks like tonight, the sky is heavy, feels like the winds are gonna change' was born that night and triggered off the direction for a song of Gods love and judgment pouring down on us.' - Martin Smith (
