Seasons and times, and moons and hours, Heav’n, earth, and air are Thine; When clouds distill in fruitful showers, The Author is divine. 4. Those wandering cisterns in the sky, Borne by the winds around, With watery treasures well supply The furrows of the ground. 5. The thirsty ridges drink their fill, And ranks of corn appear; Thy ways abound with blessing still, Thy goodness crowns the year. Languages: English Tune Title: LAFAYETTE
