Like the Sun and Rain
**Title:** Like the Sun and Rain
(A Reflection on Matthew 5:44-45)
**(Verse 1)**
The world says hate the ones who hate you,
Return the hurt they gave to you.
But Your voice cuts through the darkness,
Whispering a different truth.
**(Pre-Chorus)**
It's a call that feels impossible,
A mountain far too high to climb.
Yet You ask this of Your children,
In this broken, hurting time.
**(Chorus)**
So help me love my enemies, Lord,
Pray for those who wish me harm.
Break this heart of stone within me,
With Your mercy, soft and warm.
Let me be Your true reflection,
Shining bright with holy grace.
Make me like the sun and rain, Lord,
Pouring love on every face.
*(Like the sun and rain...)*
**(Verse 2)**
You don't hold back the morning sunlight,
From the ones who curse Your name.
You send rain to bless the fields, Lord,
Of the just and unjust all the same.
This is love beyond my measure,
Perfect, free, and undeserved.
Teach my spirit this great treasure,
So Your character is observed.
**(Pre-Chorus)**
To forgive the deepest wounding,
To bless when curses fill the air...
This is how the world will know us,
By this love beyond compare.
**(Chorus)**
So help me love my enemies, Lord,
Pray for those who wish me harm.
Break this heart of stone within me,
With Your mercy, soft and warm.
Let me be Your true reflection,
Shining bright with holy grace.
Make me like the sun and rain, Lord,
Pouring love on every face.
*(Like the sun and rain...)*
**(Bridge)**
For in this love, we bear Your image,
Children of the Most High God.
Walking where our Savior walked, Lord,
On this path, though rough and trod.
By Your Spirit, make it possible,
This impossible command.
Fill us with Your boundless kindness,
Help us love at Your command!
**(Chorus)**
So help us love our enemies, Lord,
Pray for those who wish us harm.
Break these hearts of stone within us,
With Your mercy, safe and warm.
Let us be Your true reflection,
Shining bright with holy grace.
Make us like the sun and rain, Lord,
Pouring love on every place.
*(Like the sun and rain... Pouring love...)*
**(Outro)**
Like the sun... and the rain...
Loving freely, easing pain...
Children of the Father's heart...
Let Your perfect love restart...
In us... today...
We choose Your way...
*(Fades softly...)*
