Deluge Is Coming, Go Build An Ark

A voice from above says, go build an ark
By my commandment you must prepare
Clouds are fast building, no time to spare 
Deluge is coming, it soon will be dark
   
Enormous, it must be, make room for all
Feathered or furry they’ll take their place
Gathered together it becomes a race
Herd all the animals, they’ll hear the call 

Into the arc he bid them two by two
Just as God mandated him long ago
Knowing that after the waters did flow 
Let fly a dove to find a world made new 

Man saw God’s covenant made pristine
Near the horizon a rainbow was seen!
