Soft Rain

As a soft rain kisses the earth with a pleasant kiss And a gentle breeze coaxes the wind chimes to play their best All God's earth rejoices as water its dry throat refreshes Sing, oh earth, a new song of praise Let each bird sing hallejuah Sparrows, crows, Mockingbirds bounce from limb to branch and sip A raindrop Refresh your dry throat and lip Cedars and Oaks, Pines and Poplar soak and bathe with raindrops drizzling moisture Release a song, oh trees, upon the wind let the rustle of dampened leaves float 'Pon the wind Birds enjoy the chorus of the trees and tingling of windchimes in the breeze...
