Let It Rain
A Rainbow Follows
Worries are the stresses that we put on ourselves
Stacking them in piles upon the flimsiest shelves
Studies say that most our worries won’t come about
Faith can be the vehicle that’s driving them out
Worries won’t eliminate the troubles you’ve got
Troubles will remain whether you worry or not
Worry spreads the cancer that the tests didn’t show
Worry is the interest paid on bills you don't owe
