A Rainbow Life

A Rainbow Life

 

No matter how earth's breezes blow,

just seek the promise, God's rainbow.

For Noah's faith was always pure,

never failing - always sure.

 

A rainbow I can see, not touch

but does it really matter much?

God holds it fast, as He holds me.

Bright colors of His rainbow see.

 

If close, God's armor we do wear.

This world can't fill us with despair.

No, never be a doubting 'Thomas'

but stand fast in Jesus' promise.

 

God parts the dark clouds of man's sin,

and brings full light of life within.

When I am touched with Spirit's winds.

God sunshine melts dark clouds of sins.

 

Before God's spectrum kisses ground,

I know His promise will be found.

I gaze, awed at His universe.

Sing praises, I, each word and verse.

 

If joy is brushed with indigo,

patience pink and peace yellow,

if kindness orange and goodness gold,

then all good fruit of His I'll hold.

 

If grace is blue and love is white,

and prayer is green and God is light,

the world's sin won't overwhelm,

for I'm in Him - another realm.

 

If life's a footrace, death blood red,

then Christ's bright rainbow lies ahead.

If we are raised from sin and strife,

then God gives us, a rainbow life.
