I'm lost in the deserts of loneliness, yearning to find my way back home.
So often I find that I long to be in Your embrace, to see Your face.

I whispered a hundred prayers to the wind, longing for hope to come my way.
Sometimes I know that in my suffering, I turn away. Yet I hear You say:

REFRAIN
"Return to My embrace!
I offer My life to you like a shower of grace.
Let my waters wash away your pain.
Your love's like rain!"

You fill all my emptiness with joy and hope. You turn all my mourning into song.
Your love that You send unfolds and overflows; within my soul, You make me whole.

You send me a gentle rain that my fields may grow, with life and with love I long to own.
Your Spirit I hear whisper in my heart, "Let loving reign like the pouring rain!" (REFRAIN)

BRIDGE
In the wastelands of my dark despair, I know that I am with You - and you'll always be there!
