Sunshine and Rain

I thought that You were only sunshine
But now I see You in the showers of rain
In fact, You never really promised me
A life of bliss, free of tears and pain

They say that You were only sunshine
But now I see You in the showers of rain
In fact, You never really promised me
A life of bliss, free of tears and pain

Lord, thanks not only for bringing me
Into the sunlight
But also for letting the rain fall down
Giving me strength
Bringing me life
(Bringing, bringing me life)

Yes, I thank You not only for bringing me
Into the sunlight
But also for letting the rain fall down
Giving me strength
And bringing me life

Who thought that life was only laughter
And reality just a game to play
What would the light be without the darkness
Or a flower without a drop of rain

They told me life was only laughter
And reality just a game to play
What would the light be without the darkness
Or a flower without a drop of rain

Lord, thanks not only for bringing me
Into the sunlight
But also for letting the rain fall down
Giving me strength
Bringing me life
(Bringing, bringing me life)

Yes, I thank You not only for bringing me
Into the sunlight
But also for letting the rain fall down
Giving me strength
Bringing me life

I thought that You were only sunshine
But now I see You in the showers of rain
In fact, You never really promised me
A life of bliss, free of tears and pain

Who thought that life was only laughter
And reality just a game to play
(Just a game, just a game, oh...)
What would the light be without the darkness
Or a flower without a drop of rain

They say that You were only sunshine
But now I see You in the showers of rain
In fact, You never, never promised me
(You were only sunshine)
A life of bliss, free of tears and pain...
