After The Rain
Aaron & Jeoffrey Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Button my coat, here comes the storm again
What can I do but to trust in Him
'Cause I know the deeper my faith runs
The stronger I become
And the thunder, it may shake me
But I always know that
After the rain
You can look to the sky again
The clouds will give way
To the light of the sun
After the rain
You know that you've made it through
And you'll finally see the joy from the pain
After the rain
Everyone needs, everyone hurts
Everyone feels the weight of the world sometimes
But don't let the wind sweep your heart away
'Cause even the roughest waters cleanse
So when they come again
Let them serve as a reminder
You can always know that
After the rain
You can look to the sky again
The clouds will give way
To the light of the sun
After the rain
You know that you've made it through
And you'll finally see the joy from the pain
After the rain
Can't you see the hand of Jesus
Reaching out for you?
You never have to face the storm alone
After the rain
You can look to the sky again
The clouds will give way
To the light of the sun
(Light of the sun)
After the rain
'Cause you know that you've made it through
And you'll finally see the joy from the pain
Well, after the rain
You know that you made it
(Look to the sky again)
You know that you made it
(After the rain)
Hold on to the light
(To the light of the sun)
After the rain
You know that you made it
(I know)
You know that you made it
(So hold on, hold on)
After the rain
You know that you made it
(Look to the sky again)
You know that you made it
(Bow down and pray)
To the light of the sun
After the rain
(After the rain)
You know that you made it
(Know that you made it)
You know that you made it

I cover my heart, turn from the wind
I protect my heart, avoiding the harshness of the storm
Button my coat, here comes the storm again
I prepare for the difficulties that are coming my way
What can I do but to trust in Him
I have no other options but to have faith in God
'Cause I know the deeper my faith runs
I understand that the strength of my trust in God is proportional to its depth
The stronger I become
