Sometimes He Lets it Rain

My Relief Society teacher read this song to us on Sunday, and it really struck me.

Sometimes He Lets it Rain by Tyler Castleton and Staci Peters on the CD Women of Destiny

She sees the storm clouds gather,

The sky is turning cold and gray.

She knows that something's coming

When she starts to feel this way.

She pleads for intervention,

But heaven offers no relief.

And she would understand if she could only see that -

Sometimes He lets it rain,

He lets the fierce winds blow.

Sometimes it takes a storm

To lead a heart where it can grow.

He can move mountains of grief,

And oceans of pain,

But sometimes He lets it rain.

When her heart surrenders

To the master in control,

Her spirit learns the lessons of the tempest in her soul.

When it's no longer raging,

She can see how far she's come,

Through the wisdom and the mercy of the son.
