The Rains

I tell you this rain
Will even grow dead grain
And every filth and disdain 
It is bound to drown or drain

It pounds, it pours
Oh Lord, the casualties soar
This time heavens windows and doors 
Open almost like in the day of Noah

Just the other day the sun scorched 
Day on day and harvests botched
And we prayed as we watched 
For we are helpless if not by Providence forged

Oh Lord, temper the deluge
Let your sons and daughters find refuge 
Have mercy though thou art the Righteous judge
This prayer be to Thee our pleading nudge
