The coming together of forces
each strong within it's own right
is the recipe for disaster
and bringing to us that dark night
of darkness and confusion
Of things suddenly swept away.
with the coming together of forces
and the sending to help a bright day.

We watch all the weather patterns
just hoping to find a clue
just when and where it will happen
and we are warned of what we should do.
But with all the precautions taken
still often it proves not enough--
in it's path lies destruction
and many a life it can snuff!

You know it quite humbling
when nature's wrath unfolds
Man really ain't so great after all
When God the power holds.
We may think we're something else
and be lifted up with pride--
but it soon all vanishes
when fowl weather does deride,

Perhaps we need it so--
to put us in our place
calamities we know
sudue the human race--
but we'll be back again
when ever the coast is clear
to vainly promote ourselves
once we've calmed down our fears!

I thank the LORD everyday
He has given me something to say
And to share with others,
My Friends, my sisters, my brothers!

To God Be the Glory!
