God's Rainbow

The falling rain dissolves into mist
And the thunder begins to die.
As the sporadic lightning fades
An arch of color pours from the sky.

Rainbow appear after mighty storms
When things look their worst.
Just when the sky is darkest gray,
Out of Heaven does a rainbow burst.

God first sent the rainbow to Noah
As a sign that His word is true.
The rainbow's eternal message
Still speaks to me and you.

The rainbow is a sign of God's promise
That he will guide us through any storm,
That He will ease all our troubles
No matter what their form.

When you feel battered by life's storms
And you are filled with doubt and dismay,
Just remember: God's rainbow is coming,
For it's blessing you have only to pray.
