Lyrics
1. When the cares of life assail me
Then I search the skies above
For the God who will not fail me
Sends an emblem of His love
REFRAIN
There’s a rainbow shining somewhere
There’s a light across the skies
There’s a rainbow shining somewhere
Like a gleam from Paradise
Tho’ today the clouds are drifting
Far across the stormy sea
There’s a rainbow shining somewhere
That will some day shine for me
2. When the darkness falls around me
When the clouds above my door
Come to say that trouble’s found me
Then I watch the skies once more
3. God will come to heal my sorrow
God will come to bring me peace
With a rainbow on the morrow
When the storms of life shall cease
