A RAINBOW IN OUR STORM

Is there a rainbow in this storm
     To give us now a hope
That life anew can be reborn?
     Is that beyond God’s scope?

For waves of death around us rise,
     And we seek higher ground.
Will this storm be our life’s demise,
     No trace of us be found?

But then we see approach a boat,
     And from it net is cast;
We’re caught, and it keeps us afloat,
     Tied firmly to boat’s mast.

We see the mast is Jesus’ Cross
     With rainbow streaming forth.
At last we see we are not lost;
     In Him we plight our troth.

Our greatest gift is faith in Him
     Who’ll wash our sins away;
Our hearts become His Bethlehem
     As light shines in our day.         

And with that dawn a rainbow breaks
     Through storm’s horrendous pow’r;
His Word of peace makes Satan quake
This His Holy Hour.

For storms on earth by Satan caused
     Are stilled forever more,
And our lives now will not be lost.
     We’re safe on heaven’s shore.
