Lyrics
Someone said that in each life some rain is bound to fall
And each one sheds his share of tears
And trouble troubles us all
But the hurt can't hurt forever
And the tears are sure to dry
And it won't rain always
The clouds will soon be gone
The sun that they've been hiding has been there all along
And it won't rain always
God's promises are true
The sun's gonna shine in His own good time
And He will see you through

Meaning & Inspiration
It Won’t Rain Always uses changing weather as an image of sorrow that has a limit. The opening acknowledges tears, hurt, and trouble without minimizing them. Its answer is not a denial of pain but a steady conviction that distress will not last forever. Clouds may conceal the sun, yet they do not remove it; in the same way, the goodness of God remains present when circumstances make it difficult to see.
The chorus places hope in the truth of divine promises and in the timing of God. Relief is expected, but it is entrusted to his wisdom rather than demanded on a human schedule. The assurance that he will carry a sufferer through closely reflects biblical passages that describe sorrow giving way to joy and temporary affliction yielding to enduring glory. The song offers patient encouragement shaped by faith: tears are real, trouble is shared, and neither has the final word.
