Now it spreads along the skies,

Hangs o'er all the thirsty land!

Lo! the promise of a shower

Drops already from above!

Haste, O Lord, and quickly pour

All the spirit of thy love.

307. 7s. & 5s. M. A. C. Thomas.

The Reconciliation.

1Thou, whose wide extended sway

Suns and systems e'er obey!
