KING’S RAINBOW

A rainbow circles from uplifted hands
Around the earth to all of us embrace–
An end to storms that raged throughout the land;
God’s image is restored in human race.
A Noah’s promise made to all the earth
Gives to us Catholic Church as our New Ark,
And living waters wash in Spirit’s birth
All earth in light dispelling clouds of dark.
To Christ our King will earth and heaven bow,
And all confess that Jesus is the Lord
Of all sin’s storms which can afflict us now;
For even storms will Him as Lord adore.
Your rainbow round the earth, your kingly crown–
We’re free from all sin’s storms when to you bound.
