Every culture of the world, they speak of, Tell the tale of a great flood, I feel the weather is changing, pouring hot And getting ready to spill. I don't know what it was like before, 'think now is like before the flood.
And so I welcome the rain from the sky, It is only the tears of the earth, As a young woman who cries, Showing beauty along with the hurt, In future days woes of our lives, Will be cleansed by the tears of the earth.
I read the story of Noah and his ark, 'say that he was a righteous man, I look for truth but I can't see clear it's dark, And all the animals are scarce. I feel the end of an age is come, Inequity is the day, O Lord!
And so I welcome the rain from the sky, It is only the tears of the earth, As a young woman who cries, Showing beauty along with the hurt, In future days woes of our lives, Will be cleansed by the tears of the earth.
