Now I Hear The Rain Drops Fall

By Judy Lee Jenkins

I SEE THE FLASH OF LIGHTNING
AS IT STRIKES FROM WAY UP HIGH,

THEN HEAR THE ROAR OF THUNDER

AS IT RIPS ACROSS THE SKY.

AND THEN THERE’S PEACE AND SILENCE

AND NOTHING AT ALL,

THEN I HEAR THE RAINDROPS FALL,

THEN I HEAR THE RAINDROPS FALL.

THE HEAVEN’S OPEN UP

AND RELEASE THE FALLING RAIN,

AS IT PITTER PATTERS ON MY ROOF

AND AGAINST MY WINDOW PANE,

SUSTAINING EVERYTHING ON EARTH,

AWAKENING NEW LIFE AND BIRTH.

INTERLUDE

2ND PART

THE RAIN HAS STOPPED,

THE SUN COMES OUT,

I SEE A BUTTERFLY,

THEN APPEARS A LOVELY RAINBOW

ARCHED OVER AN AMBER SKY,

THE AIR SMELLS FRESH AND CLEAN,

AS THE BIRDS TAKE WING,

GOD’S BEAUTY MAKES MY HEART SING,

GOD’S BEAUTY MAKES MY HEART SING.

AS I GAZE UP AT THE RAINBOW

AND HEAVENS UP ABOVE,

I KNOW EXIST OUR GOD,

SO GOOD AND FULL OF LOVE.

WHO SUSTAINS EVERYTHING ON EARTH,

AS HE AWAKENS ALL NEW LIFE AND BIRTH,

AS HE AWAKENS ALL NEW LIFE AND BIRTH.
