Matthew 6.19-21

1.
Woke up this morning
with a smile on my face
This is gonna be
a wonderful day

The sun shines so bright
the birds sing their songs
I want to make this day a special day

My heart feels so free
I don’t mind the clouds
that are slowly filling the air

Chorus
Summer rain – drives the sunshine away
Summer rain – is that the way it is?  

2.
The rain has fallen
and I’m soaked to the skin
I got no reason
to smile anymore

My days have faded
my dreams have got lost
I wonder what is still to come

In the middle of my life
you want things to be changed
I have to start all over again

Chorus
Summer rain – makes the flowers grow
Summer rain – gives me ‘water of life’

3.
Make up my mind
lift my eyes to the sky
Where you lead me
is the place I want to be

Let the sun shine so bright
let the rain fall on me
let the storms drive through my hair

I’ve got my own way to go
I don’t need to look back
my time is in your hand

Chorus
Summer rain – water from above
Summer rain – refreshes my soul

Summer rain – given for free
Summer rain – let your love rain down

Summer rain – promise of life
Summer rain – water from above
