Rain calms my soul with its soft trickling Soothing my worries with reflection On mental waves of calming acceptance Sent from God through His warm shower Rain calls out to me through the lightning Bolts so bold they illuminate through thunder Swiftly lighting up the sky with electricity Sent from heaven to enliven the very air Rain embraces me with its gentle touch Sprinkling down to whisper tender words Of devotion to the One who knows everything And promises to give the heart reassurance Rain carries me through the claps of thunder With a sense of elation that I can endure This testing of the senses concerning trust In the One who brings us all nature’s delights Rain cleanses the earth with its renewing grace Gives the moon and stars a transformed place For carrying the night into the beauty of dawn Where God sheds His light from the morning sun Rain awakens the creatures to a replenishment Fills the streams and rivers with a hope for fresh dreams Renewing the earth’s blue waters and azure seas With a gift from heaven to the awaiting sprays Rain lifts the spirits of those who know what love Was given to the ones who lived on Noah’s ark And knew the spirit’s promise from God above To always plead the rainbow as a vow to all of us Read Genesis 9:8-9:17 for the covenant of the rainbow
