Flood Prayer

Flood Prayer

Today the rain fell
and fell
and fell

The puddles grew
and grew
and grew

The ground filled up
and up
and up

The creeks turned into rivers
and rivers
and rivers

The rivers ran amok
amok
amok

And now the houses are islands
and islands
and islands

The people cry out
and out
and out

Their tears fall
and fall
and fall

Tomorrow may the sun shine
and shine
and shine

I Watch You Fall

I Watch You Fall
