On a Year of threatening Rain

And generous fruit and golden grain Have spread their riches round. 2 But we Thy mercies have abus'd To more abounding crimes: What heights, what daring heights in sin Mark and disgrace our times! 3 Equal tho' awful is the doom, That fierce descending rain Should into inundations swell, And crush the rising grain! 4 How just that in the autumn’s reign, When we had hop'd to reap, Our fields of sorrow and despair Should lie a hedious heap. 5 But, Lord, have mercy on our land, Those floods of vengeance stay; Dispel these glooms, and let the sun Shine in unclouded day! 6 To thee alone we look for help; None else of dew or rain Can give the world the smallest drop, Or smallest drop restrain.

On a Year of threatening Drought

Author: Dr. Gibbons Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns #DI (1792) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Times and Seasons The Seasons of the Year First Line: The spring, great God, at thy command Lyrics: 1 The spring, great God, at thy command Leads forth the smiling year; Gay verdure, foliage, blooms and flowers T' adorn her reign appear. 2 But soon canst thou in righteous wrath Blast all the promis'd joy, And elements await thy nod To bless or to destroy. 3 The sun, thy minister of love, That from the naked ground Calls forth the hidden seeds to birth, And spreads their beauties round; 4 At the dread order of his God, Now darts destructive fires; Hills, plains, and vales, are parch'd with drought, And blooming life expires. 5 Like burnish'd brass, the heaven around In angry terror burns, While the earth lies a joyless waste, And into iron turns. 6 Pity us, Lord, in our distress, Nor with our land contend; Bid the avenging skies relent, And showers of mercy send.
