God said to Noah
- 5013
God said to noah, ‘never again
will I flood the earth with all that rain;
and this is how you’ll know it’s true;
I’ve put these colours in the sky for you.’
2. So if you ever wonder why
there’s a beautiful rainbow in the sky,
remember God keeps his promise still –
he always does what he says he will.

The story behind the hymn
This song followed a request by the author’s wife for her group’s Sunday Club presentation on the subject. The song and tune developed together in the author’s head.
