NOAH


How’d you get all those hens,
Birds and cats, and goats back then?
How’d they come to just that place?
Did some of them have to race?

The rain would come,
But not before
Noah got them in and
God shut the door!

Now, tell me true,
Did none of them fight
When they had to stay there,
On the boat, all night?

And I can guess,
When the water went away,
They had an awful crowd
At the door, that day!

They must have stuck around.
For, a rainbow, high,
Was shining, right there,
In the big, blue, sky!

A rainbow is a promise
That God’s word is true,
A promise that He’ll always
Love me and you.
