Wash Day
I wash the dishes at the sink
scrub-a-dub old food and grease
plates and bowls and silverware clink
Ah, for a moment of peace
but daily duties call my name—
dishes! laundry! floors! without cease
grubby, my house bears no blame
months of hot wind and dusty pain
on my poor house laid claim
last night the Lord opened cloudy vein
my home and I rejoiced again
in a moment of peace
and blessing of rain
