Genesis 9:16<\/strong><\/p>\n

“Whenever the rainbow appears in the clouds, I will see it and remember the everlasting covenant between God and all living creatures of every kind on the earth.”<\/span><\/p>\n

Without rain there could be no rainbow. Without sun there would be no rainbow. God has graciously made a covenant with all creatures on the earth that there would never again be a flood such as there was in Noah?s day.<\/p>\n

I can recall that Joyce and I were once driving along the beautiful Columbia River gorge in Oregon. A rain shower had recently swept across the area, and now bright sunlight flooded the area. As we drove, a rainbow seemed to follow the car. I know it was a refraction of the sunlight, but it was an awe inspiring sight.<\/p>\n

Back in 1879 Rev. J. K. Alwood was equally moved as he observed a rainbow in the western sky late one evening as he was traveling home. When he arrived at his home, he immediately composed the hymn for this week; The Unclouded Day.<\/p>\n

“<\/strong><\/em>The Unclouded Day<\/strong><\/em><\/a>“<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

O they tell me of a home far beyond the skies,
\nO they tell me of a home far away;
\nO they tell me of a home where no storm clouds rise,
\nO they tell me of an unclouded day.<\/em><\/p>\n

Chorus: <\/strong>
\nO the land of cloudless day,
\nO the land of an unclouded sky;
\nO they tell me of a home,
\nWhere no storm clouds rise,
\nO they tell me of an unclouded day.<\/em><\/p>\n

O they tell me of a home where my friends have gone,
\nO they tell me of that land far away;
\nWhere the tree of life in eternal bloom
\nSheds its fragrance thru the unclouded day.<\/em><\/p>\n

Chorus: <\/strong>
\nO the land of cloudless day,
\nO the land of an unclouded sky;
\nO they tell me of a home,
\nWhere no storm clouds rise,
\nO they tell me of an unclouded day.<\/em><\/p>\n

O they tell me of the King in His beauty there,
\nAnd they tell me that mine eyes shall behold,
\nWhere He sits on the throne that is whiter than snow,
\nIn the city that is made of gold.<\/em><\/p>\n

Chorus: <\/strong>
\nO the land of cloudless day,
\nO the land of an unclouded sky;
\nO they tell me of a home,
\nWhere no storm clouds rise,
\nO they tell me of an unclouded day.<\/em><\/p>\n

O they tell me that he smiles on His children there,
\nAnd his smile drives their sorrows all away;
\nAnd they tell me that no tears ever come again,
\nIn that lovely land of unclouded day.<\/em><\/p>\n

Chorus:<\/strong>
\nO the land of cloudless day,
\nO the land of an unclouded sky;
\nO they tell me of a home,
\nWhere no storm clouds rise,
\nO they tell me of an unclouded day.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
