Listen to the Rain
(October 23, 1999)
Listen to the rain, God.
Listen to the rain.
Isn’t it the best sound
When things are dry and sere?
You never sleep, God.
When I’m asleep in my warm bed
And I hear the rain on my roof
It brings me joy and my heart
Is no longer parched and dry.
All the furry creatures of the forests
Are in their nests
And you are sending rain.
God, thank you for the rain.
