The hymn "Cloud and Pillar of Fire" is about God's guidance of Israel through the wilderness (the cloud and pillar of fire from Exodus) and Christ rending the veil, but Isaiah 15 is a prophecy of judgment against Moab that doesn't relate to these themes.
However, if I must provide an explanation:
This hymn does not appear to connect with Isaiah 15's oracle against Moab. | | | The Shadow of the Law, reflecting the Body, which is Christ | | |   | | | | | | 18 | 0 | 532213 | 1 |
| | Drop down, ye heavens from above | Drop down, ye heavens from above | | | | English | | | | Isaiah 15:8I notice there may be a mismatch here. The hymn "Drop down, ye heavens from above" is based on Isaiah 45:8 (a messianic prophecy about righteousness and salvation), not Isaiah 15 (which is an oracle of judgment against Moab).
If this is indeed meant to connect to Isaiah 15, there isn't a clear thematic or textual connection between this Advent hymn about divine mercy descending and Isaiah 15's lament over Moab's destruction.
However, if I must provide an explanation:
This hymn's plea for heaven's mercy contrasts with Isaiah 15's portrayal of judgment and mourning. | | | | | [Drop down, ye heavens from above] |  | | | | | | 3 | 0 | 1306266 | 1 |
