You turn night into day,
In Your light all is grace,
So we cry once again,
Spirit, fall on everyone.
Come, like You promise.
Come, like the rain.
Come, Lord Jesus,
Come fill our hearts again.
Hope for all, young and old,
None too lost to be known,
Here with You, we are home,
Spirit, fall on everyone.
Whoever calls upon Your name,
Will know Your love, and be saved.
Whoever calls upon Your name,
Will know Your love, and be saved.
Come, like You promise.
Come, like the rain.
Come, Lord Jesus,
Come fill our hearts again.
