It's Raining Again 230304

It's raining again

Like it's been raining

Raining like I never remembered

Since the past year ended

It's raining again

And the cold wet caress

Of the wind on my face

Calls me to lift up my eyes

It's raining again

And as I look up

Half-blinded by liquid pellets

I see them shine

They shine as they fall

And I look higher

Past their dark holding

Into the sunlight above

It's beautiful

And His presence falls around me

Warm and living

Washing away last night

Washing away my yesterdays

Making me clean again

Like the blood that was sprinkled

Shed to make me pure

Shed to keep me spotless

Through the endless ages

Wrapped in His love

Safe in His arms
