God is good, He sends the rain;
For His glo­ry, we should not com­plain;
What He sends is al­ways best,
Stormy clouds and all the rest.

Refrain

What would we do with­out the clouds?
The clouds bring rain,
Scattering show­ers of bless­ing
Over hill and plain,
Bringing to us the har­vest
Of the gold­en grain;
What would we do with­out the clouds?
The clouds bring rain.

Verdant mea­dows, fruits and flow­ers,
Gather beau­ty from the fall­ing show­ers;
Clouds are sail­boats from above,
Laden with the gifts of love.

Refrain

Cloudless sky makes bar­ren land;
Parched and thirs­ty is the de­sert sand;
So would life be bar­ren, too,
If there were no clouds for you.

Refrain
