Reviews for Bring The Rain Lyrics

First, I am so moved by these reviews. Thank you
for everyones openness. I love this song so much! I moves me, it challenges me. This week the Lord has been speaking to me through this song. I've definitely had rain in my life and the Lord has been there to show himself mighty. But, the more I listen to this song it challenges me to trust the Lord enough to pray " Bring the Rain". My flesh wants to be fearful, but the peace that passes ALL understanding, whispers to my soul " I'm right here with you, you WILL make it through, and I love you my child!" If you have never seen the NOOMA video by Rob Bell called "Rain" it is awesome and a wonderful compliment to this song.
Signed, challenged to pray,"Jesus, bring the rain in my life!"

I first heard this song about 2 months ago while driving down the highway. Life has been absolutely difficult due to a bankruptcy caused by a failed business and a chronically ill wife, along with a rebellious daughter. There have been spiritual, emotional, physical battles throughout the past 15 years of my wife's illness. There have been diffuculties in marriage and child-rearing. Our previous pastor before we had to move to EC Wisconsin would say. "God is either sovereign or He is not". He also challenged us to glorify God no matter what. Our new church has the been such an encouragement in this area as well. When I am tempted to give up, run, just plain quit this song challenges me to push onward and bring God the glory. It has changed how I would have liked to respond in my flesh to re-examining life and attempting to respond in the way God himself would. Thanks for writing this song and blessing a hurting soul.

I heard this song on KCMS 105.3 about 3 months ago as I was (still am)going thru a very difficult phase in my life. It made me realize and embrace the truth that God is with us, His children, in every and any circumstance and that "all things work for good to those who love Him", not only during good times but especially when it's pouring rain.It is because of this assurance that I can lift my head and say "this too shall pass".
GOD IS A GOOD!

I am a police officer assigned to an inner city middle school. I feel God has me there since many ofmy kids live in horrible homes. I put this song on my MySpace page. I know He is blessing all that come to my sight to read or send me a message....and they get a message about Him! Praise the Lord for all His goodness~!

I have just discovered this song! It is so amazing and its the kind of song you feel every single person in the world should hear! It describes how in every circumstance Jesus can be praised for he is glorious and so holy. I heard this after having an accident where I fell 4ft off some steps outside as they fell from beneath me. This accident could have been very serious but escaped with only bruises and scatches although they are painful I could have hit my head and the Lord and his angels saved me from that. Then I discovered this song on my mp3 player! I am going to tell everyone i know about it as there've been hard times in my life and those around me recently! All must know the greatness of the Lord!

There are a lot of songs that talk about getting through hard times, and when you're going through some rough things, listening to one of these songs can really show you that God is there. I recently went on a mission trip to Holyoke, Colorado, and it completely changed my views on God and set me on fire. When it gets more difficult to see God, ill hear this song on the radio or something, and it helps me to remember that God is holy and he is always there. And yall, please pray for me, because i really want God to work in my life, and to use me, and i have this thing that might be God answering my prayers, but im not sure im going to be able to do it. i really want to, but the wait is eating me up.
thanks, and thank you mercyme for this awesome song. i love it!

Four times I watched my daughter lay near death from drug addiction. God spared her from being killed three times; once from a serious car accident and twice from bullets that was meant for her. Words don't express the grief and heartache that we went through, not to mention how this tore at the very fiber of our family. I learned from these years of battle that God remains the same; Holy and sovereign, His Word WILL NOT return void, and He really will turn our mourning into dancing. Today at age 23, my daughter is a beautiful woman of God and heading for the mission field; He gave her the “chance to be free”! And all for the glory of God; He is greater than the pain!

I listen to this song about 25 times everyday,and everytime i hear it i am so amazed about how true the song really is, it reminds me that god is in control of my life, he knows what is right for me, when to bring the rain or the sun, god knows just what to do.

THANK YOU JESUS!!

This is such a beautiful song & when I sing along with it I am able to release some of the grief inside me in the loss of my husband. Life does bring pain at times but never does My Lord ever leave my side. My greatest desire is to continue to praise God no matter what this life brings & I can only do that by allowing Jesus to be my everything!

I've been practicing this song for weeks to sing at church this Sunday. Sometimes when I'm singing it, I think that because I'm singing it over and over that Jesus is going to bring me more rain, like I'm asking for it, ya know? You've heard people say "be careful what you pray for". The thought immediately is replaced with the thought that He knows the very best for us, when to bring the rain, the sun, the snow, the breeze, into our life. Why should I be scared if He does bring the rain? He created me, He knows everything about me (and still loves me)! Jesus, bring me joy, bring me peace, bring a chance to be free, bring me anything that brings you glory (and help me remember to give you the glory), and if it's rain you need to bring me - my life is in your hands!

I finished a hard year of an accelerated graduate school program in late May. This past year was undoubtedly the hardest of my life; I've never felt so lonely and so far from God, all the while knowing that He must still be there somewhere. After finishing my degree, I moved to a new place. I have yet to find a job, a place to live, or an affordable car (and around here, I need one!). After about three weeks of wondering if I had heard the Lord speak clearly about my move, my wonderful, godly boyfriend's mother took a turn for the worse at the hospital (she has been struggling with diabetes and heart problems). After about three weeks, she passed away. I'm 24, and my boyfriend is 28. We both feel so young and so inexperienced in dealing with this loss ... it seems life is hard and complicated enough sometimes with the daily routine! And yet, God promises his faithful provision, doesn't he? It's raining, but I know we'll make it through the rain.

If we don't bloom while living in the thorn bush of life, how will people be drawn to the fragrance of Christ? I've got the CD on repeat for this song--I really need those healing words.

I just heard this song for the first time this morning and it bought tears to my eyes. I just got out of a 2 1/2 year relationship. This song spoke to me right away. I know this is a storm in my life, and though sometimes i think Jesus is sleeping in the boat, I know that this is all for his honor and glory. I know when this storm is over i will be a better christian and servant to him knowing he brought me thorough this storm. The rain seems to be to much at times, but I thank him for all he has done for me.

When I was 19 I got pregnant by accident and miscarried almost four months later. Ironically, my husband and I have been struggling with infertility for almost five years. In that time my best friend had a son and is now pregnant with her second child. My cousin had a baby with her live-in boyfriend and many many others have had children. I have felt hurt and alone... forgotten and left behind. This song refreshed my heart, spirit and soul today. It reminded me of how the hurt helps us grow closer and stronger with God. I'm struggling a lot and I'm in a lot of pain, mostly because no one really understands what it feels like to struggle with infertility and live in faith at the same time. I don't know how much longer I can do this for, but I do know that God will always be there and always carry me through anything, no matter who and no matter what. I have grown a lot and this song reminds me how necessary the rain is in our lives. It helps us to see how much Jesus loves us, how he will never forsake us.
