I seen a rainbow yesterday

But too many storms have come and joined

Leavin' a trace of not one God-given ray

Is it because my life is ten shades of gray

I pray, all ten fade away, seldom praise Him for the sunny days (Minimum stop point)

And like His promise is true, only my faith can undo

The many chances I blew to bring my life to anew

Clear and blue and unconditional

Skies have dried the tears from my eyes, no more lonely cries.
