2 A little at one time, again We have a little more; Thus doth thy Word like unto Rain Refresh thy blessed Poor.
3 Rain makes the Earth both fresh & green, And every thing to grow; Tis by thy Word and Spirit; Lord, We thrive and flourish do.
3 Rain makes the Earth both fresh & green, And ev'ry thing to grow; Tis by thy Word and Spirit; Lord, We thrive and flourish do.
4 There's none can stop the Rain that falls, If thou Commission give, Thy Word shall come upon us all, Thy Grace shall make us live.
5 Let sin and Devil do their worst, Thy Word shall not return Unto thee empty, it prosper shall, For thy Will must be done.
