Dear God

It’s the first day of April

The onset of Spring

The day they call fools day

But God don’t make no day for fools

Because God don’t make

any man a fool

 

Dear God

It is a new day

A new dawn

The middle of lent

For faithfuls who are faithful

Who give up little comforts in supplication

 

As the trees bloom

And flowers blossom

As canopies of greens envelope the earth

And showers of blessings

Provide nourishment for the greens

As winter withered trees come alive

 

So shall it be

That lives would be watered

That the barren would become fertile

That days of lack would give way

To days of abundance

That shouts of laughter

Would replace the cries of despair

 

Dear God

Make me be April

Make me a ray of hope

Make me be sunshine

To bring light to the homes of many

And provide energy for those in need

 

Make me be like rainfall

To water the paths of many

To Wash away pains

And quench the thirst of the weary

To Provide nourishment

For the young to blossom

Like a lily by the river
