A Desert Storm

A desert storm has broken loose
     To cleanse both air and earth–
Breaks from creation Devil’s noose
     With heaven’s violent mirth.

And likewise all our hearts are washed
     By pain of Calvary’s storm–
Makes Sharon’s Rose in each heart blush
     With life through death reborn.

Through clean’sed heart all earth and air
     Smell of the Spirit’s breath;
Has never seemed the world so fair
     As when she’s free of death.
