I can’t stop the rain by Third Day,
renamed “When the rain comes” is a wonderful story of faith
through the storm and how God holds us through painful times.
When you listen to this song also read the powerful lyrics,
Lyrics by Mark Lee/Music by Third Day
From the recording: Come Together, Track #10.
When the rain comes it seems that everyone has
gone away
When the night falls you wonder if you shouldn’t
find someplace
To run and hide / Escape the pain
But hiding’s such a lonely thing to do
I can’t stop the rain / From falling down on you again
I can’t stop the rain / But I will hold you ’til it goes away
When the rain comes you blame it on the things that
you have done
When the storm fades you know that rain must fall
on everyone
So Rest awhile / it’ll be alright
No one loves you like I do
When the rain comes / I will hold you
This is a song which I play in order to make me realise that God is in control of all things and I can do nothing myself. All I can do is to rely on His love to see me through the tough times.
The RAIN will come in you life and mine but God is always there for us.
I would love your comments on this song.

I don’t have the Come Together album (yet) so I never heard this song until now. It is a very beautiful song. I would love to learn to play it. The band Third Day will always hold a special place in my heart because when I became saved several years ago they were the first Christian Band I liked. Because I liked them so much, I began to listen to other christian band and it really opened the door of this music genre for me. They are still going strong, still true to the Word; and still ROCK!
Thanks for posting this song for us to hear.
Hi there, thanks for comment, this is a fantastic song and one which makes you realise that there is nothing you can do to stop trouble coming your way except trust in the Lord and he will se you through.
