I got my umbrella out because they say when it rains it pours
Ok God, you got my attention so let me get yours
I know what I need to do; yet my feet go the opposite direction
So here I am before you for a full point inspection
Connection? My dots were tangled up with the wrong things
They say it’s my season but my eyes have yet to see spring
I was all talk and no action, life full of subtraction
But I guess I had to get sick of myself like an allergic reaction
It’s raining hard, but this weather isn’t like the norm
This is cleaning me, revealing me, so I know it was God-formed
I see a vessel being crafted; I’m still on the potter’s wheel
The inside of the cup is dirty; remove what has been concealed
You continued to call me all the while I was pressing ignore
Yet when I’m in trouble I cry out for you to bring me to the shore
I hear the thunder; I see the lightning; my flesh and spirit are fighting
If I am what I eat, I need to check the food that I’m biting
I feel like Paul steady praying about this thing in my flesh
But if I want to live that means first I must experience death
I need to die to me because inside of me? Nothing is good
And evil is always present when doing what I should
I’m on this same mountain because I have yet to pass this lesson
Yet knowing that I would be here you allow the spirit to be in intercession
Continue to fall like dew, until I’m made brand new
Give me a clearer perspective to see your point of view
I contemplated spiritual suicide, but you brought prevention
Going downhill, you stepped in as my intervention
Not to mention, you saw me expiring but gave me an extension
Gave me benefits with the blood of Jesus as my pension
Guard my mind with maximum security
You’re holy God; that’s why I’m chasing purity
This rain is revealing the face behind the makeup
I gotta deny myself to follow you; there’s a cross I have to take up
A mind I have to make up; strongholds that need to break up
I’ve slept away purpose too long; now its time to wake up
Time to do a shake up; shout it from the rooftop
My tears of restoration remind me of the raindrops
A drop here, a drop there; but look closer at my huddle
When all is said and done, eventually those drops become a puddle
Who am I to tell the potter how to form the clay?
Especially when it’s Your will I need to obey
You know the plans you have for me; in this place I won’t always stay
Even if I have to learn to grow in the storm, rain you can go all day…
