    [FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]Deep in darkness we begin,
    dark outside and deep within.
    Now ignite a single flame,
    shadows form, let light remain.
    Flaming brightly, let love shine,
    flaming out through space and time.
    [/FONT]

    [FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]As they gleaned the word of life,
    narrative of love and strife,
    people through each age have known
    yet more light: God's glory shown.

    [FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]John the Baptist spoke out loud,
    challenged that discordant crowd,
    called each one toward the light,
    see it growing, gleaming bright.

    [FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]Mary wondered at her lot,
    blessed? Or cursed? Or loved? Or not?
    Angels came and glory shone
    Feel the love, let light shine on
    [/FONT][FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]Flaming brightly, let love shine,
    flaming out through space and time.
    [/FONT]


    [FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]Look! a star is shining there
    See the stable stark and bare.
    Christmas dawns, all darkness gone!
    Christ has come, the light shines on!
    Flaming brightly, see love shine,
    flaming out through space and time.

    you have my apologies in advance.....googled
    'raining hymn' and got this................



    In my little grey home in the west



    In our little wet home in the trench
    That the rain storms continually drench
    There’s a dead cow near-by with its hooves in the sky
    And it gives off a terrible stench.
    Beneath us instead of a floor
    Is a layer of cold mud and some straw.
    The Jack Johnsons we dread
    As they speed overhead
    In our little wet home in the trench.

    Here you go Al, how about this version...

    Morning Has Broken

    As sung by Cat Stevens

    lyrics by Eleanor Farjeon
    Morning has broken, like the first morning
    Blackbird has spoken, like the first bird
    Praise for the singing, praise for the morning
    Praise for the springing fresh from the world

    Sweet the rain's new fall, sunlit from heaven
    Like the first dewfall, on the first grass
    Praise for the sweetness of the wet garden
    Sprung in completeness where his feet pass

    Mine is the sunlight, mine is the morning
    Born of the one light, Eden saw play
    Praise with elation, praise every morning
    God's recreation of the new day
