Larry Gatlin - It Must Have Rained In Heaven Lyrics

One hammer cast a shadow on the rough, stony ground.
It was raised toward the heavens, and all at once it came crashing down.
It drove a spike, 12 inches long through each tender hand,
And nailed to one wooden cross, one guiltless man.

One spear was cast in anger, into one precious side.
Two dice were thrown in mockery, for his robe, just before he died.
Two eyes were cast up toward the sky, "Forgive them God", he prayed.
And I know it must have rained in Heaven on crucifixion day.

I know it must have rained in Heaven on crucifixion day.
The promised resurrection must have seemed at least a million years away.
All the lights went out in Heaven, except the light of love that somehow stayed,
In the broken heart of God, the Father, on crucifixion day.

All the lights went out in Heaven, except the light of love that somehow stayed,
In the broken heart of God, the Father, on crucifixion day.
