Grateful for the Rain

1. I’ve been in the fight swinging left
Dodging right, get no rest
Life been trying to knock me to my knees
I been laying down in my bed
Spinning round in my head
Crying out for God to rescue me

2. With every step I’m falling back two or three
But I never let it get the best of me
Or keep me down
Cause I know it makes me stronger

[Chorus]
Stars don’t shine without the darkness
Sun don’t rise without the shade
We can’t smile without the sadness
We can’t heal without the pain
There is salty and sweet
Mountains high valleys deep
Flowers bloom after storm cloudy days
It’s hard when it keeps falling
But I’m grateful for the rain

3. Every day like
Hitting the red lights
Back in the deep
Trying to see when it’s the dark of night
Feel the pressure and it
Pulls me in
Here we go again
But I keep trying cause

4. When the weight is heavy and it’s hard to breathe
When the waves are steady crashing down on me
Something lifts me up
And nothing’s ever gonna stop me

[Chorus]
Stars don’t shine without the darkness
Sun don’t rise without the shade
We can’t smile without the sadness
We can’t heal without the pain
There is salty and sweet
Mountains high valleys deep
Flowers bloom after storm cloudy days
It’s hard when it keeps falling
But I’m grateful for the rain

5. If I didn’t have the chaos wouldn’t know the peace
If I didn’t feel the hurt I wouldn’t know relief
It’s true that I can’t have this joy without the grief
I guess that all these ups and downs are good for me
If I didn’t have the chaos wouldn’t know the peace
If I didn’t feel the hurt I wouldn’t know relief
It’s true that I can’t have this joy without the grief
Without the grief

[Chorus]
Stars don’t shine without the darkness
Sun don’t rise without the shade
We can’t smile without the sadness
We can’t heal without the pain
There is salty and sweet
Mountains high valleys deep
Flowers bloom after storm cloudy days
It’s hard when it keeps falling
But I’m grateful for the rain
It’s hard when it keeps falling
But I’m grateful for the rain
