Let It Rain (Is There Anybody)

Last updated

This is one of those summertime, good-vibe, car cruisin' songs that you just gotta roll the windows down and crank it up. But maybe it's summertime and it's raining and you can't put those windows down, that's ok. The same God that brings that sunshine, brings the rain. And the clouds will clear. He's got it all. He's got you. This is a reminder we all need.
