Outstretched Arms

Darkened clouds roll swiftly by

As hopes for rain fall from the sky

In drops of sweetness all abound

These raindrops dance upon the ground

The soil parched

The earth so dry

This present blessing from the sky

Eluded us for far too long

And now it’s raining ever strong

This rain will heal the earth indeed

Then help to germinate the seed

That grows and covers and feeds us all

We’re praying so much more will fall

And when it does we’ll say a prayer

Of thanks because we know He’s there

Providing all we need to live

It teaches us to share and give

And as the earth starts drinking in

We look to Him to walk from sin

Because we know He paid the price

With outstretched arms of sacrifice
