Here comes the World

Here comes the world,
Dancing in a ballet for the ages
Crashing sounds are all around,
The smiling faces turned to shocked horror

Waves reached towards Heaven,
As the sky’s bright colors mocked them,
Shaking and rumbling,
Crashing and roaring all about,

Gone was the work,
Gone was the world,
Why would God do this?
Why would he let this happen?

The end of the world looked near in sight,
How could someone go through this,
Family gone from the waves crashing down,
The house being swept away,

So many lives lost,
So many lives that yet to even begin,
So many years together brought to an abrupt end,
You should never take anyone for granted,

Here comes the world,
Dancing in a ballet for the ages
Crashing sounds are all around,
The smiling faces turned to shocked horror
