To obey like roaring thunder,
like rain that melts the dirt
like lightning that illuminates darkness
and wind that gusts across stagnant plains.
May my heart melt in Your presence
And unshaken faith be resurrected.
May I exile my body, my will, my doubt,
So I may be at rest in my lowliness.
And like the thunder may my obedience speak out
With Your truth.
Like the rain may I melt the hearts of others
With Your unboundning mercy.
Like the lightning may I illuminate darkness
With Your light.
And like the wind may I overcome stagnant life
With Your unshakeable Love.
And as this storm purifies the Earth with its water,
May we purify the atmosphere with our presence.
