Praying for Sunny Days Lyrics
The thunder echoes
From the mountains to the waves
Sometimes I wish I could tell the clouds to behave
Calm the stormy seas
Just by stretching out my hand
But I am just a man, only a man, so I'm...
Chorus
Praying for sunny days to return to me
Seeking the warmth of the solar rays
I'm not just seeing the gray skies in front of me
Praying for sunny days
This torrential downpour has my brain in a trance
I'd get up and move but I just can't dance
Lord, You know that I've done all I can
But I am just a man, only a man, so I'm...
Chorus
Rain, rain, go away, I have faith that you won't stay
I don't care what doubters say
Sunny days will come my way
Then the birds come out to play
By the light of one sun ray
Now I kneel me down to pray,
"Please, God give me sunny days"
Chorus
By Shawn Lewis and Mike Jackson
Song Description:
"We can't control the weather. So why are we always praying about it? Because God can control it. Being a Northwest band, Hyper Static Union has been in more than our fair share of prayer circles where everyone is basically asking God to stave off the rain. Many a well-planned outreach event has fallen prey to the drenching nimbus clouds that, so often, hover above our area. It may seem pointless to pray about the weather. Doesn't God already have it worked out? He knows when it should or should not rain. The same God who miraculously brought plagues on Egypt to free His people is listening to our plights today. Our God is an active, caring, listening God who answers prayer. Do not underestimate Him! Bring all your concerns to Him, even if you're simply 'praying for sunny days.'" - Shawn Lewis (HyperStatic Union)
