The Lord was saddened by his creation,
He saw human beings only generate devastation.
The wickedness mastered everyone.
There was no kindness in no one.
God decided to destroy everything,
He will send to the Earth the great flooding.
Before all this happens,
There was a servant that God desired to protect,
Noah was a man blessed by God,
God would save him and his beloved ones.
Build an ark. God commanded him,
And every pair of animals would come in.
So that every kind of animal will keep alive,
After the rains, they will start a new Earth and life.
There will not remain any human beings,
All wickedness of the Earth will be cleansed.
Until the highest mountains will be flooded.
The Earth will seem like a big lake.
After to happen everything,
The waters started receding.
The land could be seen again.
The hope of a new life arose in them.
God led them until they came out of the ark.
The promise of fidelity has been confirmed.
In gratitude, Noah sacrificed,
About that, the Lord delighted.
A new covenant with Noah was established,
Another time, this world will never be destroyed.
There will be a sign to people recognize,
How much God showed his love for their lives.
