Lord, Who throughout These Forty Days
Author: Claudia F. I. Hernaman Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 86 hymnals Scripture: Isaiah 55:7 Lyrics: 1 Lord, who throughout these forty days
for us did fast and pray,
teach us with you to mourn our sins
and close by you to stay.
2 As you with Satan did contend
and did the victory win,
O give us strength to persevere,
in you to conquer sin.
3 And through these days of penitence,
and through this Passiontide,
yes, evermore, in life and death,
O Lord, with us abide.
4 Abide with us, till when this life
of suffering shall be past,
an Easter of unending joy
we may attain at last.

Rain of Heaven
Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 47 hymnals Scripture: Isaiah 55:10-11 First Line: As show'rs on meadows newly mown Lyrics: 1 As show'rs on meadows newly mown,
Jesus shall shed his blessings down,
Crown'd with whose life infusing drops,
Earth shall renew her blissful crops.
2 Lands that beneath a burning sky,
Have long been desolate and dry,
Th' effusions of his love shall share,
And sudden greens and herbage wear.
3 The dews and rains, in all their store,
Drenching the pastures o'er and o'er,
Are not so copious as that grace,
Which sanctifies and saves our race.
4 As in soft silence vernal show'rs
Descend and cheer the fainting flow'rs,
So in the secrecy of love
Falls the sweet infl'ence from above.
5 That heav'nly infl'ence let me find
In holy silence of the mind,
While ev'ry grace maintains it bloom,
Diffusing wide its rich perfume.
6 Nor let these blessings be confin'd
To me, but pour'd on all mankind,
Till earth's wild wastes in verdure rise,
And a young Eden bless our eyes.
