Come, gentle shower,
And wash the land…
With hope,
Refresh and cleanse.

Come, gentle shower,
With cooling mist;
Calm the restless dust
And soothe a thirsting land.

Come, gentle shower,
And sing with the trees;
Join with the whisper
Of evening’s breeze.

Come, gentle shower,
Stay for a bit;
Renew this weary world.

Come, gentle shower,
Freshen the air;
Let cleansing quick descend.
