Deluge Premiere

Noah shown favor
Ark to escape destruction
God’s wrath was to come

Animals, by two 
Fowls of the air by seven
To replenish Earth

Eight souls of mankind
Noah, three sons, and their wives
Ark’s door shut by God

First time ere witnessed
Heavens and earth opened up
Deluge upon them

Lifted on waters
Some hundred and fifty days
Then docked on the mount

New life on the earth
Be fruitful and multiply
Fresh promise rainbow
