The lightning attacks the ground.
A predecessor of coming rain.
The awed applause of God abound -
His thunder claps and claps again.
A woodland hush 'neath starless dome.
The giving trees plead and tremble.
The fish swim deep and birds fly home
as fearful watchers who assemble.

A woodland hush 'neath starless dome.
The giving trees plead and tremble.
The fish swim deep and birds fly home
as fearful watchers who assemble.
