Christian rock band Leeland released a powerful song titled “Rain” that explores themes of longing and hope. The music starts slow and builds, reflecting the lyrics that talk about feeling dry and empty. The singer pleads for “rain” as a metaphor for God’s love and grace.
The chorus is a powerful shift, filled with imagery of rain washing away the pain and bringing new life. Leeland sings about letting go and allowing God to fill the emptiness. The song ends with a feeling of peace and renewal, like the world has been cleansed and hope has been restored.
“Rain” is a beautiful song that can encourage anyone going through a tough time. It reminds listeners that God’s love is always available, even when we feel lost or alone.

Rain Lyrics by Leeland
Rain, rain on me
Open the windows of Heaven
Rain, rain on me
Open the windows of Heaven
Open up the heavens
Pouring out a blessing
Lord, we need refreshing
‘Til it overflows
Open up the heavens
Pouring out a blessing
Lord, we need refreshing
‘Til it overflows
Rain, rain on me
Open the windows of Heaven
Rain, rain on me
Open the windows of Heaven
Open up the heavens
Pouring out a blessing
Lord, we need refreshing
‘Til it overflows
Open up the heavens
Pouring out a blessing
Lord, we need refreshing
‘Til it overflows
Open up the heavens
Pouring out a blessing
Lord, we need refreshing
‘Til it overflows
Open up the heavens
Pouring out a blessing
Lord, we need refreshing
