The Rain Is Softly Falling
The rain is softly falling
But the birds are still singing.
The earth’s being replenished;
God doesn’t cease His giving.
Rain is such a blessing;
It cools the hot summer’s day.
When we see it falling,
We should thank God always.
Rain provides us with water,
So that we can freely drink;
When we get thirsty,
Just go to the kitchen sink.
It provides us with produce
From the garden where it grows.
Our daily provisions
From God’s valleys high and low.
Rain is essential
For our existence here on earth.
As essential as the sun
For to new life it gives birth.
I love to hear it falling
All those tiny drops;
Refreshing God’s creations
Until it finally stops.
Then the sun comes out again
The drops all disappear;
Evaporated by the sun
Orchestrated by our God who cares.
