I saw God wash the world last night With His sweet showers…
““I saw God wash the world last night With His sweet showers on high and then when morning came i saw Him hang it out to dry He washed it each blade of grass and every trembling tree; He flung His showers against the hills and swept the rolling sea the white rose is a cleaner white the red, a richer red Since God washed every fragrant face and put them to bed theres not a bird theres not a bee the wings along the way but is a cleaner bird or bee than it was yesterday i saw God wash the world last night ah would He wash me as clean of all my dust and dirt as that old birch tree!””
