Hurricane Katrina suddenly blossomed into a killer storm The
winds, waves, and storm surge were way above the norm Alabama,
Florida, Louisiana and Mississippi this storm did ravage The
force of the waters and wind were fierce and mighty savage
The levee around New Orleans suffered a major breach The murky
flood waters to the rooftops did quickly reach Many people lost
their lives, possessions and their home Some folks sought refuge
in the New Orleans Superdome
One day things were normal as people walked around The next day
debris and water covered the ground I can only imagine the great
flood of Noah's day When upon the whole earth the flood waters
did lay
Why did this major disaster happen you may ask To recover from
this ordeal will be a major task I believe Katrina came to
remind us of God's power That can topple the world's most well
built tower
The Lord has said that all things work together for good People
are helping each other in their neighborhood Hurricane Katrina
has greatly affected the USA The Louisiana Governor declared
August 31 as a day to pray
The Bible story of Job tells of his woe and grief When
everything was taken from him by that old thief Job stated that
the Lord gives and the Lord takes away He believed that God
would help him see a better day
The Lord God controls the times and the seasons For Hurricane
Katrina he had his divine reasons I pray that many people to the
Lord God would turn And from Hurricane Katrina many lessons learn
