Lyrics:
When the sins of my father
Weigh down in my soul
And the pain of my mother
Will not let me go
Well, I know there can come fire from the sky
To refine the purest of kings
Even though
I know this fire brings me pain
Even so
And, Lord, just the same
Make it rain
Make it rain
Make it rain
Make it rain
Make it rain
Make it rain
Make it rain
Make it rain
And the seed needs the water
Before it grows out of the ground
But it just keeps on getting hotter
And the hunger more profound
Well, I know there can come tears from their eyes
But they may as well be in vain
Even though
I know these tears will bring me pain
Even so
And, Lord, just the same
Oh, make it rain
Make it rain
Make it rain
Make it rain
Make it rain
Make it rain
Make it rain
Make it rain
The seas fill with water
Stops by the shore
Just like the riches of grandeur
Never reach the port
Let the clouds fill with thunderous applause
Oh, let lightning be the veins
Fill the sky
With all that they can drop
When it's time
To make a change
Make it rain
Make it rain
Make it rain
Make it rain
Make it rain
Make it rain
Make it rain
Oh, make it rain
Make it rain
Make it rain down, Lord
Make it rain
Make it rain
Make it rain
Make it rain down
Make it rain
Make it rain
Your Honour brought me here.
Me too
Me too❤
Me too. 6/2024 ❤
Same 😅
Me too
If everything went wrong...turn off the light.. take a drink ... and Mr. Foy Vance will let you enjoy the pain. Thank you Sir
I love this one much better than Ed Sheeran!! Much!!!!!!
I've never seen such an accurate comment
🤣
perfect comment
ı like that bro.
Your Honor…brought me here, had to find this gem! 2023 March!
I hate that Foy Vance gets no recognition for writing the song and is completely underrated for his beautifully soulful sound. This is the best version of the song and the only version I will ever have in my iTunes library.
T Santi preach!!
T Santi I wouldn't say I don't like other versions of this song, but I do agree that he doesn't get much recognition for this one. I think the original is the best version. So much soul. 😍😍
This is hands down on of the most soulful songs on Earth, so deep and so real.
yes maybe but Ed Sheeran made it famous. as much as i like this version too, i would never even look for it, if it wasn't for Ed Sheeran version as i never heard this song before until i watch Son of anarchy. Even if Foy might not have much recognition for it, he got some extra cash in the bank thanks to Ed so that's something and who ever didn't know him before, like me, now they do thanks to Ed too! :-)
+vallotus couldn't have said it better myself
Poetry, emotions, the history of the human heart on a mic of this humble soul
Your Honor brought me here.
Isn't it sad that nowadays the true artists are so underrated while so many talentless people are on the top?!
preach
Ed Sheran got talent, but yea, most others I agree.
Snarky Puppy is talent, but still underground kinda
Talent doesn’t sell as much anymore
Your Honor brought me here ☺️ beautiful song 🫶🏼💖
He sings for us all, folks who keep on fighting for life, for a better place for our children. We are like seeds, waiting for the rain, to bloom, to live our full potential. It's not easy. Many times I wanted to quit. But still I keep standing strong. So God, make it rain, so my seeds can grow. Who understands the hardship of living better than a blue tune?
such beautiful words..
Shine on!❤
This is the result of what happens when a grown man sings with his heart and soul!!!
Damn good song.
He'll yeah!
I just saw Foy live for $15 in a theatre that holds less than 200 people. That will be the best spent money of this lifetime. This guy is so real deal in every song, every performance....He is like BB King and Billy Joel and God knows who else all wrapped into one
And Jonny Lang
you need some guitar so throw in clapton

Sheeran was an avid fan of the series and mentioned it on his Twitter account. When the creator read it, he proposed that Sheeran record a song for one of the episodes. As Sheeran was touring with Vance at the time, and as the song started with the lyrics "When the sins of my father / Weigh down in my soul", he thought it was appropriate for the series and with Vance's approval, he recorded the song.
I heard this for the first time in the finale of Your Honor. Haunting to say the least. Googled it and found Sheehan’s version. Outstanding. Wanted to know who wrote it and found Foy. His performance was the best of all. The pain comes through so clearly.
I was surprised! I didn't expect that song on the show "Your Honor", shades of SOA playing this haunting song in the last tragic beyond sad ending of SOA 😭
Anyway after hearing Ed Sheeran sing it on SOA, I looked it up and listened to Foy Vance, the OG of this epic hit. Both renditions are righteous and stunningly haunting. The footage on SOA as this achingly haunting song plays is very gut wrenching as it was back then in 2012, and rewatching that last episode footage currently. What a show and a wild ride SOA was.
What's trippy is that there's a new show on Fri nights called Fire Country, one of the leading stars name Bodé, to me, looks hella like Jax did on SOA. ❤️
To Scott Ando
I guess I'm one of the few who already was obsessed with this song having heard it first on SOA song by Ed Sheeran.
As soon as I heard a few chords on Your honor by the talented man with the guitar.
I heard this (part of it only) for the first time in AGT. Then searched TH-cam for the full version.
You are right,He Sounds purely Honest👂👌❣️
Just heard this on : season 2 your honor. Came straight to TH-cam to find it. Had to find it. Love it. 🙌🏼👏🏼👏🏼❤️
Me too
Same.. the song was good but the finale was too rushed unfortunately
Same same. Pain and soul is endless so beautiful. Jor el Quinn is the singer who covers it in Your Honor. Running to check him out next
Spring is the first season
He and Chris Stapleton. No words. No one can make you feel right into your very soul like them❤️
Hello beautiful
Agree 100%
How can there be a song, that makes all the pains of a lifetime, actually feel worthwhile?
I've known this song for years, but "Youre Honor" brought me back. This version is immensely better than the studio version.
This song is gonna be classic and timeless,cause its pure blues
After watching your honor a lot more people are hip to him and his music. Awesome
You just know this song is about to hit different, when you hear the first chord...personally, I just need to take a deep breath every single time it comes on. Truly a masterpiece....I still have trouble wrapping my head around this being a live-performance, it's just flawless.
if you dont have a glass of whiskey while listening to this song I just dont what the hell you waiting for
It's a very special thing when a song can render you completely speechless. Wow.
Vance understands pain and the beauty it creates in the soul of an artist as they sing. His voice literally pours out from a depth of emotion you can feel and in turn, it washes into our own souls as we listen.... we come to understand, from voices like this that there is no emotional privacy in the utter creation of singing the blues.
Arguably the best sung blues take ever performed publicly. The fact this was live is almost inconceivable.
There was the scent of rain in the air that brought me here. I've been here before but I've been in a drought far too long.
I am blown away...just totally fucking blown away.
You sing more Revelation than anyone ever hears in “church”. Your recognition comes from those that know…You are the singer of The Song.
I discovered this song by seeing H.E.R. perform a gospel rendition. Foy is the best singer-songwriter-performer I've heard in decades, since Tom Waits, Van Morrison, Springsteen and Etheridge were young. Composers earn greater royalties than the singers of cover versions, so I applaud Ed Sheeran, H.E.R., Kacey Musgraves, Elton John and Miranda Lambert for spreading the genius of Foy's artistry.
Grabbed a glass with ice and a bottle of Macallan, sat down closed my eyes and listened to this on a rainy day....TRANSPORTS YOUR SOUL. Let it be written....Foy Vance will usher in the new golden era of BLUES.
Pure soul & pain!! Love it!!
I am speechless, it's like I'm looking straight in his soul, it's magic, or should I say it's the beauty of a real artist
Just saw him open for Ed Sheeran in Ottawa and I just about died. How is HE opening for Ed Sheeran, I love Ed but this guy should be headlining tours!
Litsa D Damn Right!
Litsa D Wouldn't it have been something to have them do this as a duet.....
LORD HAVE MERCY. Literally a musical MASTERPIECE.
In 2022, this song still sends chills.
Now in 2023 , can you believe?
@@rarefruit2320well there is the truth
I just discovered this guy today..ive already listened to this song 4 times..Hes Amazing!!!😍😍
There is no thing that you can call perfection, but Foy with this, it's as close as you come.
Think I just found one of my favourite songs ever. Heard this on SOA but Foy Vance is the business! absolutely blown away by these vocals. Imma be in church kicking it with Mr Vance if anyone needs me, Lord Jesus!
So glad I found this artist. I haven't been this impressed by a singer/songwriter in a good long while. Heard the impressive cover of this by Laith Al-Saadi on The Voice. Traced it back to Ed Sheeran and thankfully found this very gripping version by the original artist. Just bought Foy's LIve from Bangor Abbey album. Very impressive. Some shades of early Springsteen and Van Morrison but such originality that feels every word.
+Richard Dalby Yeah, you're right!!! And I heard it from Laith Al-Saadi too!!
+Richard Dalby I agree, you can hear the young Springsteen in it. Actually I'm a little curious what the Boss would do with this song...
I’m thinking a little Joe Cocker ?
Old school music ..... true and from the soul.
I heard my neighbors playing the Ed Sheridan version. I look the song up. Heard this one and have never even listened to Ed sing it. This is how the song belongs.
So happy I discovered him. Real music right here lady's and gentlemen.
I'm not just listening to this, I'm feeling it. 🎼🖤
SO unbelievably talented! Foy sings from the heart - and gut-- from someone who has experienced deep, unrelenting pain, and who (I think) understand that this is a refining process allowed by a loving Creator xxoo
God this was heaven. What a beautiful voice and great instrumentals.
A_Cirious_Gamer . I believe Nashville Tennessee are born with Melody & music . 💯
Is It normal? When you discover Foy Vance you can't stop hearing?
Hace 15 minutos lo descubrí. Ya soy puramente fanático. Esta fue la primer canción que escuché y es absolutamente impresionante.
Never will get tired of this song
When the sins of my father
Weigh down in my soul
And the pain of my mother
Will not let me go
Well, I know there can come fire from the sky
To refine the purest of kings
And even though
I know this fire brings me pain
Even so
And just the same
Make it rain
Make it rain down, Lord
Make it rain
Oh, make it rain
Make it rain
Make it rain down, Lord
Make it rain
Make it rain
And the seed needs the water
Before it grows out of the ground
But it just keeps on getting hotter
And the hunger more profound
Well, I know there can come tears from the eyes
But they may as well be in vain
Even though
I know these tears come with pain
Even so
And just the same
Make it rain
Make it rain down, Lord
Make it rain
Make it rain
Make it rain
Make it rain down, Lord
Make it rain
Make it rain
Make it rain [x8]
And the seas are full of water
That stops by the shore
Just like the riches of grandeur
That never reach the poor
And let the clouds fill with thunderous applause
And let lightning be the veins
And fill the sky
With all that they can drop
When it's time
To make a change
Make it rain
Make it rain down, Lord
Make it rain
Make it rain
Make it rain
Make it rain down, Lord
Sry to say, but it's the wrong lyrics.. 😉
thanks dude
Thanks
@@asd123asd123asd123aawhy?
I agree with all of the below....and I am weeping. Vance deserves more credit for this...love you Ed.
Now that's a powerful voice, it's makes you feel every part of the song
This is one of the most amazing vocals I have ever heard... although Ed Sheeran sang the radio version of this song, I believe it was a hit, but when I heard this version of the tune done by Foy Vance, the actual writer of the song, it 'bout tore me up. So many of us can't quite let that one heartbreak go, take a few minutes to check this masterpiece out...... Foy Vance, he brought on the floods.
sheila
Foy takes us to church time and time again. . . bless you man
Wow! Not only did Foy Vance write this song but sang it better than Ed Sheeran, I love this version
+IblewuponyourfaceIII Well duh
Steve Durrer
True
+IblewuponyourfaceIII I find Ed Sheeran's version sub par.
+xxundertowxx Nah, it was really excellent but Foy is just better
:-)
I love it and I make no comparisons, Eds version led me to this so I am grateful and respectful of the simple beauty of the truth, greatness and kindred souls that shared this with us all. Thanks
It's raining down and the reservoirs of my soul are being filled.
The deep meaning behind this song is so beautiful. You can hear the emotion in his voice
Make it rain down LORD 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Literal tears every time 😭 something about how drawn out and pained every note is just hits me so hard. Thank you for making this art, Foy Vance.
I been listening to Ed Sheeran version since that episode of SOA where Jax killed his mom.... but after hearing the original, i don't know if i can listen to ed's version anymore... and i fucking love ED! But Foy.... definitely has a voice blessed by the GODS!
Sincerely feel the same, but like why the heck did they NOT use Foy's version for SOA. For real, just sayin.
@@jaelo7496 because they only used covers in SoA, i think the only exceptions are the opening and "The Whistler" from the white buffalo
Opie's wake song too
@@berkegocmen1872 SOA went off years ago if you haven't seen it yet, it's your fault.
SPOILERS FUCK U 😭😭😭😭😭
This beautiful song had me from the first note on SOA, & I couldn't get it out of my head for at least three days. -And tonight I found this... absolutely haunting masterpiece from its creator. I cannot get enough of it. This is the kind of song that speaks to your soul. Its
perfect.
I was today years old when I heard of Foy Vance and this AMAZING song. I've blasted it and three neighbors came to find out who he is. 18,905/10 Recommend.
All the pain of the universe can be met and processed right here, in this vocal performance. I don’t even try to share it with others- pain will bring them to it, when it’s time to make it rain.
He sings with a pure soul and a broken heart by the many steps that were a mistake
Bad ass voice. Music moves my soul. 🤘🏼👊🏼
The guitar work on this track is absolutely amazing but that voice oh my goodness. Timeless timeless timeless. I can drink a whole lot of bourbon and listen to Foy but especially this track
Still can't believe this is live
I can't even convey how this song resonates with me by using mere words. It's so very deep, soulful, raw and guttural 🥲
I had a chance to see Foy live back in 2014 in Cleveland, Ohio, and I regret it almost daily...
The applause at the end of this magical performance sadly do not show the appreciation that this colossus of a performance deserves. Magnificent.
I have so,so much love for this song! ...for his voice,for every word.....just amazaing ....
Foy Vance...I send you soooo much love from Croatia,Europe!!!! God bless you!
If u still listening this u are legend🔥✌️
I love this song and I feel comfort from his verses "make it rain, make it rain, make it rain, make it rain." I love rain and I get peace when it rains.
Rain started already while the song was playing , No rain can stopped after listening such a authentic and organic song.
Absolutely wonderful, i can feel the pain in my bones.. ❤
Both renditions, by the OG Foy Vance and Ed Sheeran's sung on SOA are righteous.
I love love love this song. His version, of course, is the very BEST. I could listen to this all day :). Foy Vance you have a wonderful marvelous voice.
I am a huge ed fan but I got to say that this is way better
no doubt, you can feel that power that comes out here
This is the original. Foy Vance wrote this song.
100% agree!
Its because it's the original mate lol
@Joystick.R looking for more music like this, would you recommend any other artists to take a listen to?
Magnificent! Probably one the finest things I've heard... Bravo.. Bravo.
This is soulful...Hairs at the back of my neck done stand up.😭😭😭😭😭💌
A shot of feeling for a numb soul. Thank you
sons of anarchy braught me here!
#soa forever
yes and this version is even better
This version??? This is the original.
not sure sounds very similar
Similar with wat? And if it sounds similar you can't blame Foy Vance for it.. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Make_It_Rain_(Foy_Vance_song)
This pieces echoes in me. The sweet powerful, soulful poignancy of this work is locked in my mind. Thank you. Oh thank you so much for sharing this.
Ed is hands down my favorite artist right now but dear god... I've loved Foy since I saw him live in 2013, his voice is just soulful.
So much power here. Wow.
Where have I been that I am hearing him for the first time. Wow!! Sounds like a story of a guy named Teddy Swims. No one knew of him. He was working at a chili's restaurant. Finally on the tour route and covid hit. Sigh. Check out Teddy guys. Another gem
This is song is epic and talks directly to the hidden parts of me.
🌹
Dude is brilliant and weird . And possibly great. I love his energy .
Love his voice - and the whole build-up through the song... just beautiful, soulful and feels so honest.
Sensational musician! Can't stop listening. Unique talent!!!
I just cant get enough of this guy - so much beauty in music like this.
We could literally solve a lot of the world’s problems if everyone had his soul . Hauntingly beautiful 😢
A beautifully soulful sound! Make it rain........
When the sins of my father
Weigh down in my soul
And the pain of my mother
Will not let me go
Well, I know there can come fire from the sky
To refine the purest of kings
And even though
I know this fire brings me pain
Even so
And just the same
Make it rain
When the sins of my father weigh down in my soul
And the pain of my mother will not let me go
Well, I know there can come fire from the sky to refine the purest of kings
Even though, I know this fire brings me pain
Even so, Lord just the same
Make it rain, make it rain, make it rain, make it rain
Make it rain, make it rain, make it rain, make it rain
Every seed needs the water before it grows out of the ground
But it just keeps on getting hard, and the hunger more profound
Well, I know there can come tears from the eye, but they may as well be in vain
Even though I know these tears will bring me pain
Even so, Lord just the same
Make it rain, make it rain, make it rain, make it rain
Make it rain, make it rain, make it rain, make it rain
Well, the sea is filled with water, stops by the shore
Just like the riches of grandeur never reach the poor
Let the clouds fill with thunderous applause, oh let lightning be the veins
Fill the sky with all that they can draw, when it's time to make a change
Make it rain, make it rain, make it rain, make it rain
Make it rain, make it rain, make it rain, make it rain
Make it rain, make it rain, make it rain, make it rain
Make it rain, make it rain, make it rain, make it rain
How could I not know about this Guy?
Hello JoLynn 👋 how are you ?
From the moment the first chord was played I was moved. Truly I immediately got goose bumps because I could feel the emotion in the music and the vocals. The lyrics are so profound and deeply resonate with the emotions of this listener. To learn to let go and make it rain so that the heart may heal is a wondrous message.Thank you Mr. Vance for sharing your true gifts with us.
Lawd have mercy! This song, this voice, this man is making me feel some kind of way...
Goosebumps at 6:10. Incredible.
I CAN'T STOP LISTENING!! ESPECIALLY WITH WHAT'S HAPPENING IN OUR WORLD RIGHT NOW!! IT GIVES ME HOPE!! I NO LONGER LIVE IN FEAR I'M SO FREE! THANK YOU FOY VANCE!!
I hear you brother.
@@sirking4500 thanks for hearing me!🤗 I'm your sister.💓😔
Very bluesy...deep soul.
So glad to have found the original. Ed did a good job at his cover, but nothing will top this.
Outstanding voice and blue's to the core!
You Don't Learn How To Sing With This Type Of Soul...You're Born With It! Thanks For Your Honor Bringing Me Here!!
❤️ 👏 As an almost 70 year old, classically trained pianist and organist who still enjoys ALL genres of music, I think what you said is true for everyone who sings or plays an instrument. In order to make music ‘come to life’ and truly touch those who hear it, it can ONLY happen when the artist themselves is blessed with the ‘gift’ (like Foy Vance has), and are able to convey it to those who hear it - regardless of what type/genre of music it is. THIS is one that really has me believe that it’s something a gifted person is born with the ability to do. I 1st discovered Foy Vance when I heard him playing ‘I Would Die For You’ or ‘ Feel For Me’ IIRC, and bc of the lyrics it meant a lot to me - almost as much as does this one, but for different reasons. Still 👍 🎤 👏, underrated, and not recognized by many people - such a shame!
this gives me goosebumps. it's amazing. Although Ed is my favourite singer i must say this is the best of those two versions :)
simply magic
Amazing song!!! Didn't know it was written by Foy Vance! And let me say, I thought I loved the Ed Sheeran version until I heard this!! The grit in his voice adds a quality to it that makes the song even more special and haunting beautiful and...and...and!! AMAZING!!! ❤
