Edited Hymn

In an effort to improve in 2015, I re-visited this hymn I wrote in 2014 and made some changes, one being that I chopped the fourth verse.  I think this version is better.  Any opinions?

Without Rain

desert

Without rain this world’s a desert;

Without sun this world is cold;

Without God this world’s barren

And our hearts will turn to stone

                       ***

Without hope this world’s desperate;

Without love this world is cold;

Without God this world is chaos

And our souls would have no home.

                       ***

Turn your eyes towards Lord Jesus;

Tune  your ears to hear God’s Word;

Use your hands to do His service

And God’s grace will overflow.
