Refreshing Rain

Rain dives down onto land
Grass oceans and even sand
Gently falls upon my hand
My reflection in the raindrop
Who is this I see
Tiny little drops of rain
Created high up in the sky
In the clouds is where it lies
Cleanses planet earth 
Soon after its birth
Washes away evil and sin
Gives one a sense of refreshment
Planet earth is truly a blessing
Wash away all earth's pain
Earth. Please. 
Wash away my sins
Let the water rain down on me
Replenish myself to start a new
Slight regret gives off a sense of weight 
Heavy on my shoulders
I carry this around 
But I must accept my sins to set myself free
