It is raining


The ground is dry
It's surface covered in dust
This definitely must be a drought
Why is the sun so hot
Not what I want

Who makes a channel for the torrents of rain?
Who makes rain fall on dry ground?
Who sends rain to satisfy the parched ground 
And make the withered plants spring up?

Does the rain have a father?
Who gives birth to the dews?
Can you shout to the clouds
And make it rain?

Ask the Lord for rain in the spring
 He makes the storm clouds
And He will send showers of rain so every field becomes a lush pasture.
You drenched the plowed ground with rain
Melting the clods and leveling the ridges
You soften the earth with showers 
And bless its abundant crops.

I lift my hands to you in prayer Lord
I thirst for you as parched land thirsts for rain
When the king smiles, there is life
His favor refreshes like a spring rain
When clouds are heavy
The rains come down

-Ayo Obi
