Like an Autumn Rain

Things that don’t seem right to the human mind
are his delight time after time
Like an autumn rain on a summer’s day
or a winter wind in the month of May

There’s a brightness shining on the darkest night
When nothing adds up even when you’re right
and although you’re trying with all of your might
and you think you’ve seen the light
it still won’t go your way

There’s a fire burning in a rain-soaked land
causing a desperate yearning in an empty man
tired of building castles in the sand
knowing they won’t stand
still you continue anyway

And losing everything you’ve owned
to remind you of the simple truth you’ve known
you’ll keep falling short no matter how you’ve grown
you can’t do it on your own
still you fight through one more day

Things that don’t seem right to the human mind
are His delight time after time
Like an autumn rain on a summer’s day
or a winter wind in the month of May
