God Brings His People Into His Land

God, when you went out in front of your people,
when you marched through the wasteland, Interlude

    before God, this one from Sinai,
    before God, the God of Israel.
You dispersed plentiful showers, O God.
You strengthened your inheritance when it was weary.[a]

You gave abundant showers,(G) O God;
