about

Almost every ceremonial dance includes a prayer for rain among the Hopi Indians of Arizona. This song was a favorite among many Hopis.

lyrics

RAIN DANCE
Terry M. Wildman
2 Sam 6:14, Isaiah 55:10-11, Psalm 63:1, Psalm 149:3

Father, hear our prayer—Father, see our prayer
We dance for the rain—we dance for the rain
We dance for the rain—we dance for the rain

Your word is like the rain that falls—from above
Watering the earth below—giving life

As we move our feet to the pounding drum
We move our hearts to the Ancient One
We dance for the rain—we dance for the rain
We dance for the rain—we dance for the rain

From this dry and weary land
Where there is no rain
From our parched and thirsty souls
Where there is no water

Yah Yah Yahweh Yah—Way Yo Hey Nay Yah
Eh Yah Eh Yah—Eh Yah Eh Yah
Way Yo Hey Nay Yah
