A Boat!

I built a boat of cypress, according to God's command!

This boat saved my family and me!

A boat!

Only because my God commanded me to build a boat!

I sent out a raven to search for land,

But it came back with no where to land!

I sent out a dove to search for land,

But none was found!

For forty days and nights we were out on the water!

Again the dove I sent!

Finally it came with an olive branch!

What a hopeful sign it was of the land

Soon to be found!

One last time I sent my dove out,

Only this time it did not return!

Oh, what a salvation that boat was to me and my family!

A boat!

A boat and my God saved me and my family!
