What They're Saying:
"I can count a million times/People asking me how I can praise You with all that I've gone through/The question just amazes me/Can circumstances possibly change who I forever am in You?/Maybe since my life was changed long before these rainy days/It's never really ever crossed my mind to turn my back on you, oh Lord/My only shelter from the storm/But instead I draw closer through these times, so I pray/Bring me joy, bring me peace/Bring the chance to be free/Bring me anything that brings You glory/And I know there'll be days/When this life brings me pain/But if that's what it takes to praise You/Jesus, bring the rain"

— from MercyMe's Song of the Year nominated "Bring the Rain," off the 2006 release Coming Up to Breathe
