COLD OCTOBER RAIN (I Just Call On You)

Put out the candle
Take off your robe
And I'll take you to that river
Where the living waters flow

Outside it's cold and raining
And this old church is warm
So there ain't no need to hurrying
On that long and final march

Refrain:
‘Cause it's gonn be a long, long time to winter
But it's gonna be a longer time to spring
So I can't imagine why
You are leaving here tonight
With that cold October rain in your eye
With that cold October rain in your eye

Put down your rifle
Take off your sword
There ain't no need in dying
If you don't know what for

I don't offer you money
I just offer my time
I'm the One Who died forgiving
To bring You peace of mind

Refrain:
And it's gonna be a long, long time to winter
But it's gonna be a longer time to spring
So I can't imagine why
You are leaving here tonight
With that cold October rain in your eye
With that cold October rain in your eye
