Musical Intro
Verse 1: But there won't be a rainbow without a little rain.
And we can't know what joy is without a little pain.
The ups and downs may toss us like the mighty, rolling waves,
But God provided for us, and He'll take us all the way!
Chorus: There's a rainbow in the sky. Can you see?
Red, Blue, Yellow, Orange, Purple, Pink and Green.
The rainbow is a message sent from up above,
A promise God won't destroy the earth again by flood.
V 2: The unbelievers, sinners, grievers, under water now,
Will never see God's gift to us bursting from the clouds.
We don't know what will lie ahead, but we will make it through.
God's given us so much, and the Promised Land's in view!
Chorus: There's a rainbow in the sky. Can you see?
Red, Blue, Yellow, Orange, Purple, Pink and Green.
The rainbow is a message sent from up above,
A promise God won't destroy the earth again by flood.
Bridge: We've come so far to start anew, and God sent us this sign...
A masterpiece for me and you, and it's painted, painted on the sky.
Chorus: There's a rainbow in the sky. Can you see?
Red, Blue, Yellow, Orange, Purple, Pink, and Green.
The rainbow is a message sent from up above,
A promise God won't destroy the earth again by flood.
Outro: High-igh. Rainbow in the sky. (Bass: In the)
Sky-y. Rainbow in the sky. (Bass: In the)
Sky-y. Rainbow in the sky. (Bass: There's a)
Rain, rain, rain, rain, rainbow in the sky!
