Behind The Song: Planetshakers Share The Heart Behind Their Song “Rain Your Glory Down”

This week’s featured song story comes to us from Planetshakers. We’re excited to share with you the story behind Their Song “Rain Your Glory Down.”

“We needed one [a song] so that we’re declaring the rain of God but we’re also giving people a picture and a vision, a desire in their hearts I suppose to call out to God for rain. Whenever Pastor Russell has one of these words like a prophetic word that it has visuals to it, it’s a metaphor of what God’s going to do and I think as songwriters we just start thinking about that thing. What does it sound like? What does it look like? How do we present that in order to pull people into it? As we’re praying for the conference I just got some of these words, particularly that chorus of just rain down your glory. .” – Planetshakers

“Rain Your Glory Down” Lyrics

I feel it in the atmosphere
Cloud of glory drawing near
Anticipation in the air
Your power moving everywhere

Pre-Chorus:
And we’re ready, Lord, we’re ready

Chorus:
So rain, rain, rain down Your glory
On us, again, pour out Your Spirit (and rain)

Pre-Chorus (2nd round):
And we’re ready, we’re ready
We’re ready, we’re ready

Bridge:
Saturate me now, come and pour it out
Spirit move in power, rain Your glory down

Building Bridge:
Lord I’m craving more, more than before
You are all I want, all I’m longing for
Holy Spirit rain on my heart again
Lord I’m ready, Lord I’m ready

Tag:
We are ready, we are ready
We are ready, so pour it out, pour it out
