Song 79, Gesangbuch



Today it rained!!

Yesterday we finished seeding

Today it rained!!

Yesterday we prayed for a mild shower

Today it rained!!

Yesterday we asked for a heavenly blessing

Today it rained!!

Yesterday the land was thirsty

Today it rained!!
Yesterday my heart was dry as sand

Today it rained!!

Let the gifts of the Holy Spirit

From the heavens pour over me

Like a mighty stream come flowing

Soaking my heart through and through.


Out go my little boys, one with the rain coat and boots, and his "berrella", plus a persistent cough and cold, and the other to collect worms that I only find the day after in a pail in the farthest coner of the living room hidden behind the chair.
