The legend of the raindrop
has a lesson for us all.
As it trembled in the heavens
questioning whether it should fall-
For the glistening raindrop argued
to the genie of the sky,
"I am beautiful and lovely
as I sparkle here on high.
and hanging here I will become
part of the rainbows hue
And I'll shimmer like a diamond
for all the world to view"...
But the genie told the raindrop,
"do not hesitate to go,
For you will be more beautiful
if you fall to earth below,
For you will sink into the soil
and be lost a while from sight
But when you reappear on earth
you'll be looked on with delight;
for you will be the raindrop
that quenched the thirsty ground
and helped the lovely flowers
to blossom all around,
And in your resurrection
you'll appear in queenly clothes
With the beauty of the lily and fragrance of the rose;
Then when you wilt and wither
you'll become part of the earth
and make the soil more fertile
and give new flowers birth"...
For there is nothing ever lost
or eternally neglected,
For everything God ever made
is always resurrected;
So trust Gods' all-wise wisdom
and doubt the Father never,
For in His heavenly kingdom
There is nothing lost forever.
