Gentle Rain
GENTLE RAIN
I long to hear the gentle rain
as it drizzles down the window pane
The sun is under cloud today
the birds are hiding too.
the trees are swaying in the breeze
I thank you Lord on my knees.
I gaze at all the clouds above
I watch them passing by,
The rain continues into night
There’s no reprieve in sight.
The lightning strikes are closer now
It illuminates the night
I feel a shiver up my spine
It causes such a fright.
I know that when the morn does come
The rain will all be gone.
There’s hope again when we at last
see the morning sun.
