Saw an old man with a cane, hid hair was silver-grey
Used to have good friends, now he misses them
Winter comes to every life, the springtime has to fade
Seasons have to change, it is nature's way
No one has promised us a lifetime without pain
Heard the old man said, "It's just a rainy day"
He knows this too will pas and joy will come again
Let the whole world know, let the cold wins blow

CHORUS
Rain on, I will not drown,
I'm standing firm on higher ground
Rain on I will not drown,
I'm standing firm on higher ground

Saw a man with dream of wealth and everything it brings
He heard the sheperd call, so he left it all
Sometimes a careless blow can leave a hollow ring
But he follows on, soon the doubt is gone

CHORUS

No one has promised us a lifetime without pain
Heard the old man said, "It's just a rainy day"
He knows this too will pas and joy will come again
Let the whole world know, let the cold wins blow

CHORUS
