I swear they never understood us, I swear they never will
But we won't ever give in we'll never quit and even after all that we've been through
Even after what those people said even when they tried to convince us to give up and quit
We said hold the rain so I can find my way back home
Jesus hold the rain so I can find my way to you
Hold the rain
Verse
They say if the storm keeps coming and if the water keeps rising
And if the levee starts caving, then we're sure to quit
Pre-Chorus
Oh but I know that you won't let me go
Lord I know you'll keep me from this storm
You will hold the rain so I can find my way back home
Jesus hold the rain so I can find my way to you
Hold the rain
Hold the rain
So I can find my way back home
Oh Lord won't you hold the rain
So I can find my way to you
So I can find my way to you
