Song DescriptionCalm, serene, encouraging religious ballad in pop style
Story Behind the SongI first wrote this song as a secular pop ballad with interesting chord progressions. Then, I converted it into a contemporary Christian ballad.
Lyrics
Jesus (Ballad version)
Verse
Jesus is the rain that washes all the pain away.
Jesus is the sun that shines upon us.
The sun dries all the tears that made the rainy day.
The rain brings out the pain.
When we're crying we can't see too far beyond the clouds that mist our eyes.
The thunder clouds the song.
We feel like we're gone, like everything is wrong.
But rain is just a state of mind. It makes us temporarily blind.
Chorus
Loving Him is something we need to do.
Don't wait awhile.
We need to give our hate away,
And learn to smile again; learn to love,
Live in peace. And pray a lot.
Verse
Jesus - forgiveness is a state of mind like dying.
Keep trying to let the past go flying away.
We have to love our Lord before we'll trust another love.
One chance for us to finally dance.
So start your loving,
The world's a tiny place. Your hearts reach out beyond infinity and space.
The love is there to take.
We deserve to love. Just open the gate.
We only have to love to stop our crying.
The answer's Jesus.
