Verse 1
Here I come to Your throne
Fall on my knees
Where I pour out my soul
You’re all I need
Verse 2
In the stillness I hear
You call my name
Where Your whispers of love
Wash all my shame
Chorus
Rain upon my life
Fill my heart
Take this moment, God
I am Yours

Here I lift my hands in worship
Here I stand before my King
As my eyes behold Your glory
Everything changes, everything changes
Woah
Woah
Outro
The favour of the Lord is here
Rain down, rain down
The glory of the Lord is here
Rain down, rain down

Meaning & Inspiration
Rain Upon My Life is a prayer for God's presence to fall on the worshiper. The first verse comes to the throne on bended knees to pour out the soul, saying God is all that is needed, and the second hears Him call the singer's name in stillness, with whispers of love washing away shame. The chorus asks Him to rain on the life, fill the heart and take the moment because the singer is His.
The bridge lifts hands in worship before the King, seeing His glory and finding that everything changes, and the ending proclaims that the favor and glory of the Lord are here, asking Him to rain down. The imagery of rain draws on Hosea 6:3, Joel 2:23 and Psalm 72:6, while the throne and call by name fit Hebrews 4:16 and Isaiah 43:1. Quiet, expectant and repetitive, it suits a time of prayer.
