[Intro]
Such a lovely world was made for you and me
Wondrous life for us to taste, touch, smell, hear, and see
But one glance from outside looking at our world state
Clearly displays we don't appreciate it at all

[Bridge]
Rain your love down won't you rain down your love
Let it drench us like the sun from above

[Verse 1]
Such ability inside you and me
Made to do anything and be all we can be
But one bird's eye view at us does show, oh it shows
That against God's Plan we've let it go, oh no

[Chorus]
Rain your love down won't you rain down your love
Let it drench us like the sun from above
Rain your love down let it rain down today
So that it may wash all our sins away

[Bridge]
You'd think the signs would make a difference
Oh, make a difference

[Verse 2]
You'd think fire next time instead of rain
Would cause us to make a change
The world has gone insane

[Chorus]
Rain your love down won't you rain down your love
Let it drench us like the sun from above
Rain your love down let it rain down today
So that it may wash all our sins away, let it rain

[Chorus]
Rain your love down let it pour on us, please
Cleansing us from hunger, hate, war, and greed
Rain your love down, won't you let it start over again
So we can live up to your Master Plan

[Chorus]
Rain your love down, oh won't you let it start
Wash the wicked minds and the
I know they're sick, you know they're sick at heart, yeah
Rain your love down won't you let it rain
Rid this world of drugs, disease, crime, and pain

[Verse 3]
Clear our spirits give our minds new software
With your lesson on honor, respect, trust, and care
Rain your love down I beg for human sake
For only you can get us out of this state

[Outro]
Rain your love down on all mankind
Cause we are out of order and so out of line

Despite losing his sight at a young age, Stevie Wonder went on to become one of the most celebrated soul songwriters of the late 20th century. His songs manage to both innovate and catch the ears of listeners of all dispositions, whilst also being big chart hits.

Incredibly influential amongst musical circles, his voice rendered modern British soul-songwriter James Morrison close to tears the first time he heard it.
