Lyrics
Verse 1
When the highs turn to lows
And the doubt in me grows
Every door seems to close
I’m left wondering if
You’re still there for me
Verse 2
I get tempted to run
From my place in the sun
I might just hide in a cave bed
And hope they miss me
Does that sound crazy
Lord I need You to
Chorus
Let Your spirit fall down
Let Your love for me abound
More than a moment I just feel
Feel me and let it be real
Fall fresh
Verse 3
Because what I feel seems to change
My Sunday joy is Monday’s pain
And the thought of Wednesday brings
Tuesdays where I just sleep in
Verse 4
But there is more left to do
And Your laborers are few
Yes I hear You calling, calling me Lord
So I’m calling You
To see me through
Chorus
Let Your spirit fall down
Let Your love for me abound
More than a moment I just feel
Feel me and let it be real
Fall fresh
Bridge
Not just that fleeting thing
That is coloring all my good days
But when gray clouds hang low
Is when I need to know
That You’re near
Oh, like how I feel right now
Fed up and burdened down
It seems easier just to creep away
Lord help me stay so the world can see
Your love is real and lives in me
Chorus
Let Your spirit fall down, down, down
Let Your love for me abound
More than a moment I just feel
Feel me
Fall fresh
Fall fresh on me God
Fall fresh
Fall fresh
Verse 5
Lord I hear of showers refreshing
You are scattering full and free
Over thirsty souls, refreshing
Don’t forget about me
Verse 6
Lord I hear of showers refreshing
They are scattering full and free
Over thirsty souls, refreshing
Please don’t forget about me
Don’t forget about me
Don’t forget about me
Don’t forget about me
Don’t forget about me
Don’t forget about me
Don’t, don’t forget about me
Interlude
We need you God
I need you God

Tears I can’t explain

I’m drowning and I need You to save me

And let it be real

Let it be real
Let it be real
Fall (yeah I like that)
Fall fresh

Meaning & Inspiration
This prayer is a plain admission of weariness and a request for God to be near. The opening verses describe doubt growing, doors closing and a temptation to hide away, and the line "My Sunday joy is Monday's pain" names how feelings can swing from one day to the next. The chorus asks for the Spirit to "fall fresh" and for God's love to feel real and not only a passing moment.
The middle of the song turns to the thought of laborers being few and a calling that still stands, then to a plea about "showers refreshing" that fall on thirsty souls with the request "Don't forget about me." The long closing section repeats "It hurts sometimes and I don't know why," and it leans on what the singer has heard of God as healer and savior.
The wording is honest about pain without resolving it neatly. It is close to the psalmist asking why the soul is downcast and choosing to hope in God, and to Jesus' remark that the harvest is plentiful but the workers are few. The repetition of the plea gives the track the feel of an extended prayer.
