When clouds begin to clear
And birdsong heard
Rises with the winging of the bird;
Moment when
Sound of rain
Is music in my heart again;
I sing aloud—
The sentence is repealed—
I can arise to know that I am healed.
Rejoice that the Christ
Through one who prayed aright
Has lifted me from darkness into light.
