^2 (A)May my teaching drip as the rain,
My speech trickle as the dew,
^(B)As droplets on the fresh grass,
And as the showers on the vegetation.

^4 (A)Is like the light of the morning when the sun rises,
A morning without clouds,
When the fresh grass springs out of the earth
From sunshine after rain.’

³ So let’s ^(A)learn, let’s press on to know the Lord.
His ^(B)appearance is as sure as the dawn;
And He will come to us like the ^(C)rain,
As the spring rain waters the earth.”
