Just Before The Dawn

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
One night the winds blew so wild
And woke the sleeping of a child.
Spooked the horses all bed down
They broke loose and almost drown.

It howled like a screaming cat
Even scared the cave driven bat.
And then it came just before dawn
The dead quiet, the wind was gone.

Then came the noise like a train
Hearing it caused so much strain.
For not a track was near us there
In our hearts a constant prayer.

Then as the sun we would have seen
We saw the tail, and what a scene.
Driven by a twisting cloud
So little time was allowed.

We yelled for each and every child
Grabbed the baby as if wild.
Turned the cattle on the run
Hope it saves at least some.

Our little puppy gripped on the way
As we fled for a cellar stay.
Food and water there for us
Thinkin’ ahead, a real plus.

When it was over all was gone
Our little home spread on and on.
Horses, cattle found in the woods
Taken away was all our goods.

But we had baby Jamie there
And my sis Liz God did spare,
And mom and pop and me in tow
And puppy winning fearing woe.

We lost nothing on that awful day
All we wanted was there to stay.
Each family member safe and sound
God spared our lives for another round.

Just before dawn when the night is black
And faith and belief we easily lack,
Is when the Lord has a wonderful plan
If only we hold on to His love for man.

Just before the Dawn in the darkest of your nights,
God is hard at work to bring you promised lights….

JUST BEFORE THE DAWN
