Rain in the Desert

I haven’t seen the stars for a while there’s been clouds covering all
but now I see a few shining through in the night
I haven’t heard from You in a while
so many things covering all
but now I feel this longing for You deep inside
It’s like rain in the desert
the dying cries out for life
It’s like light in the darkness
shadows and fears disappear
when You show your face
I know You’re here, calling my name
but who am I Am I still the same
It’s my choice to answer You
in my heart a cry is making it’s way
It’s like rain in the desert
the dying cries out for life
It’s like light in the darkness
shadows and fears disappear
it’s like sounds in the silence
comfort in sorrow and pain
It’s like peace in the thunder
lightning and storms passing by
on Your Word I will stand
Night and day the stars are there
there may be clouds covering all
but You are here surrounding me both night and day
It is rain in the desert
the dying receiving new life
It is light in the darkness
shadows and fears disappear
when You show Your face
