Lyrics Didn't It Rain - The Blind Boys of Alabama

Alright LA, put your hands together and let's welcome
Clarence Felton and the Blind Boards of Alabama!
I didn't come here looking for Jesus
I brought him along with me

Rain, rain, rain Well, didn't it rain
Sure God's gonna send the water from
Zion It's gonna rain as heaven up high
It's gonna rain, rain, rain Well, it's gonna rain
Sure God's gonna send the water from Zion
It's gonna rain as heaven up high
It's gonna rain, rain, rain

My lord, then my brother got angry upon his throne
The angels at the hidden navy came to mourn his death
Go down, angels, stir up a flood Move back to sun
Change the moon into blood Then come back
Angels, and bar the door
The time has been, won't be no more
They chanted, great God, when it started to rain

The women in the cheering navy came to scream, believe
Knocked on the window, battered at the door My brother-in-law
Can't you take on more? The door said that I'm sorry, my friend
Ggod got the key that they can't get in
No more one worried by the cheering communists
He couldn't have the angels mourn, didn't he?
God's gonna send the water from

Zion God's gonna raise his heaven up high Well
Didn't it rain, sure God's gonna send the water from
Zion It's gonna rain as heaven up high, it's gonna rain, rain, rain

They told me that it rained forty days and nights without stopping
They poured out the water and then the water kept on drop
He sent out a raven, he sent out a deer But what a good
God kept on coming from above
He gave me little cheer and a bite to eat I couldn't find
Land to rest his feet No more one worried by the racing
Of the sea He couldn't have the angels mourn, didn't he?
God's gonna send the water from

Zion God's gonna raise his heaven up high Well
, didn't it rain, sure God's gonna send the water from
Zion God's gonna raise his heaven up high Well, didn't it rain
Sure God's gonna send the water from Zion

They told me that the wind didn't blow, that ship didn't rock But I know
I couldn't find nowhere to dock But my God spoke and whispered low
Show me, brother, know I won't let me go ashore
But God know the rain's done stopped I'll shoot the land on the
Mountain top He sent out a raven, he sent out a deer But what a good
God kept on coming from above He gave me little cheer and a bite to eat
No more one worried by the racing of the sea He gave me little
Cheer and a bite to eat God's gonna send the water from

Zion God's gonna raise his heaven up high Well, didn't it rain, sure
God's gonna send the water from
Zion God's gonna raise his heaven up high Well, didn't it rain
Sure God's gonna send the water from Zion
