Rain Come Down [level: Easy] Shawn L. Kirchner: Bio and other works
accompaniment: piano
Written after the Columbine High School massacre, this song tenderly and poignantly addresses the need for healing after a loss. The folk style will appeal to all.
Also available for SATB
TEXT: Come, rain, come down, come, rain, come down,
Heaven’s tears of mercy, come a-runnin’ down.
Say no words, it is too soon, say no words out loud.
But wrap your quiet arms around, hide us in your cloud.
Come wash away this grief and pain,
and let all hearts be clean.
And bring the fairest flow’rs
to meet the sorrows we have seen.
A little lower than the angels we were born to be,
Yet which of all the creatures knows this misery?
Come, rain, come down, come, rain, come down,
Heaven’s tears of mercy, come a-runnin’ down.
performance by: SATB Recording: Bonita High School Chamber Singers, Todd Helm, Conductor [© all rights reserved]
