[Verse] Sun was burning, ground was dry Sky was clearing, no more cry Dust was rising, heart was low Waiting on the clouds to show [Pre-Chorus] Then the breeze began to change Whisper soft, call my name Feel the rhythm, start to sway Blessing falling, wash away [Chorus] Oh, the first rain, sweet refrain Falling down on thirsty plains Give thanks, lift my voice again Rain divine, bless my soul and friends [Verse] Memories of greener days Dancing light in morning haze Roots are drinking, life renews Every drop is love’s own truth [Pre-Chorus] Hear the laughter, hear the call Nature’s promise, one and all In the quiet, I will pray Grateful heart to guide my way [Chorus] Oh, the first rain, sweet refrain Falling down on thirsty plains Give thanks, lift my voice again Rain divine, bless my soul and friends [Bridge] When the sky opens wide Colours bloom, no need to hide From the sorrow, from the pain Find your peace in the rain [Chorus] Oh, the first rain, sweet refrain Falling down on thirsty plains Give thanks, lift my voice again Rain divine, bless my soul and friends [Chorus] Oh, the first rain, sweet refrain Falling down on thirsty plains Give thanks, lift my voice again Rain divine, bless my soul and friends [Outro] Rain divine, mmm, bless my soul and friends Sweet first rain, mmm, come again and again
