Daddy was a preacher   She was his wife   Just tryin to make the world a little better   You know, shine a light   People started talking   Just to hear their own voice   Those people tried to accuse my father   Said he made the wrong choice   Though it might be painful   You know that time will always tell   Those people have long since gone   My father never failed      Chorus   Even when the rain falls   Even when the flood starts rising   Even when the storm comes   I am washed by the water      Repeat Chorus      Even when the Earth crumbles under my feet   Even when the ones I love turn around and crucify me   I won’t never ever let you down   I won’t fall   I won’t fall   I won’t fall as long as you’re around me      Chorus   Even when the rain falls   Even when the flood starts rising   Even when the storm comes   I am washed by the water      Repeat Chorus Twice
