Renewal
Food For Thought 4:08Song Description:
Christ’s ability to “cleanse” us of our sins is likened to “spiritual rain”
in this evocative composition.

Lyrics:
Our Lord’s intent was pure
Thinking we’d be true.
Fig leaves told the story.
Our failure then he knew.
Sin had come with knowledge.
Satan’s tricks had won.
Eden was now in past tense.
Our innocence undone.
Over generations, mankind’s faith was lost.
Limits were exceeded, at a fateful cost.
Clouds above gave moisture,
More that e’er before.
Rain became a weapon,
Erasing every shore.
God gave rain a purpose.
Only few survived.
Later came the rainbow,
A sign of man revived.
Generations later, our savior came to earth,
Bringing us salvation, through a virgin birth.
God gave us an option,
Something we could claim.
Jesus came to cleanse us
Bringing spiritual rain.
Rain brings life through water, glistening like a jewel.
Christ offers redemption, thus our soul’s renewal.
…..through water, glistening like a jewel.
Christ offers redemption, thus our soul’s renewal. Oh yeah…
