He bestows rain on the Earth..... Job 5:10.
Rain
-
I've done the weeding, trimmed the lawn,
And pruned the roses too.
I've planted pink Azaleas,
And pretty Cornflowers blue.
-
I've raked the seed bed, swept the path,
And made a compost heap.
The vegetable patch is spick and span,
A fine harvest I'll reap.
-
Oh no, I see black clouds above,
And feel the drops quite big.
I might have known this would happen,
When 1 was just about to dig.
-
But if it never rained at all,
My work would be in vain,.
So I think I'll pray for just a while,
And thank God for the rain.
