Out Of Darkness

Out Of Darkness

I stand alone in the presence of God
My only desire is pardon and peace
My only plea: the mercy of God
God be merciful to me a sinner!

My self confidence is gone
In Christ I will trust
May I follow my Lord 
In self denial and self sacrifice

Blessed are the poor in spirit
For theirs is the kingdom of God

Lord, take my heart
Keep it pure for I cannot keep it
Lord, raise me up
Where the current of Your love flows through my soul

Blessed are the poor in spirit
For theirs is the kingdom of God
The kingdom of God
Yeah

Now I stand in Christ
But I’m not saved from trial
But in Christ’s strength 
I’m saved from defeat

Now I cherish hope and faith
That in Christ’s mighty strength 
I will endure this trial
And receive a crown of life

Now I stand in Christ
But I’m not saved from trial
But in Christ’s strength 
I’m saved from defeat

Now I cherish hope and faith
That in Christ’s mighty strength 
I will endure this trial
And receive a crown of life

Now I stand in Christ
But I’m not saved from trial
In Christ’s strength 
I’m saved from defeat
Now I cherish hope and faith
That in Christ’s mighty strength 
I will endure this trial
And receive a crown of life
Yes!

About Us:

This world is a dry and weary land.

All around us are people dying for a drink of fresh, new life.

In the Bible, drought and famine were used as a symbol of the lack or withdrawal of God's blessing. 

Like the prodigal son and the lost sheep, we have all chosen to leave the safety and security of God's love and favor, enticed by our own lusts and the alluring but empty and deadly deceptions of the enemy of our souls.

We find ourselves lost, alone, broken, hungry, thirsty and on the brink of death.

But none have strayed so far that they cannot return. 

Jesus actively seeks and works to rescue every last one of His precious souls redeemed from destruction by the very high price of His spotless life and terrible death on their behalf.

As the world departs further and further from God, and you find yourself in a dark, lonely desert place longing for hope, faith, love and a future, remember that Jesus loves you.

Cry out to Him for help and surrender your life back to Him.

He promised He would take you back, always.

We pray the music ministry of The Rain refreshes your dry and weary soul, and opens your heart for the outpouring of God's Holy Spirit in these end times. 

Nicholas and Lauren Mazzio - The Rain

Born of a promise and commission found in Isaiah 58, The Rain is a dynamic and energy filled music ministry creating a uniquely crafted sound by singer songwriter Nicholas Mazzio. His unique, signature style  blends the broadest spectrum of classic rock with soaring classical orchestration. 

"God is a God of awesomeness, and music glorifying Him should be as powerful and majestic as He is." The Rain
