Notes About The Poem

I believe by the Lord's voice, we have one
more world-wide revival before Jesus comes
for His Bride.  I believe this is not far off.

The Latter Rain

The Latter Rain

The latter rain our Lord so great has promised
would be sent to harvest His mighty precious crop
souls and souls of all ages will be coming
and the devil’s work we will perpetually stop.

For this rain the Word of God has promised
it will bring a mighty blessing from His hand
restoration and refreshing in its rain drops
come to replenish this dry and withered land.

Yes, the job then for the church to remind the Father
of His wonderful promise of old
send the rain, Dear Father like You promised
Your shekinah glory as pure as liquid gold.

For I know that where His drops fall
people are made holy and as pure as the white driven snow
becoming an army with Jesus as their Commander
but we are still awaiting His one Word to send us, that Word is, Go!
