Won't you wash away my pain
Like a sweet summer rain (4x)
Just a young man
Still searchin for forgivness
For the things I've done
While taking care of buisness
Cause this life ain't easy
And this world will push you to a sin
Just trying to find a way out
Of the shit that I'm always in
So dear Lord show mercy
On your lost child
Just trying to make it
When rest of the world has gone wild
Someone said in your love
I would finaly find my peace
The divine light that has come
To make the darkness cease
They told me in your word
I could finaly stop the pain
So let your blessings come down on me
Like a sweet summer rain
Won't you wash away my pain
Like a sweet summer rain (4x)
Struggle is the way it is
The way it was, the way it has to be
But I never doubt in the thought
That my Lord would look out for me
He told me great men
Are built in the heart of fire
And that these hatas never cease
To test the strength of my desire
So I never gave up
Always kept my faith
Cause I knew that I would eventualy
Come find my place
Right next to the great men
That came before me
The darkness lifted from my eyes
So now my eyes can see
Through all of your blessings
I am free from all the pain
And have left my spirit new
Like a sweet summer rain
Won't you wash away my pain
Like a sweet summer rain (4x)
