After the Rain

I lost my way

when I couldn't see

because I loved everyone but me. 

 

I fell that day

right to my knees, 

and I finally began to see...

 

The sky ain't so dark now

because I withstood the pain.

You showed me the beauty somehow

in the sunshine after the rain.

 

I began to pray

for everyone but me

Because I still couldn't believe.

 

I found the way

to the light in me.

You made me blind, so I could see...

 

The sky ain't so dark now

because I withstood the pain.

You showed me the beauty somehow

in the sunshine after the rain.

 

I'm done running away

from the light You give to me. 

Might be cloudy all day, 

but through the rain I see...

 

The sky ain't so dark now

because I withstood the pain.

You showed me the beauty somehow

in the sunshine after the rain.

 

It took all of me

to give in and say

You're the truth, I see...

You're the sunshine after the rain.

Most encouraging and quite

Most encouraging and quite the uplift that persuades even the slightest hint of prodigality or despondence, thanks for sharing.
