A prayer for rain

(Prayer for rain statue, Champaign County, Illinois)

A PRAYER FOR RAIN


"... Can the heavens give showers! Are You not He, O Lord our God!  Therefore we will wait for You -expectantly; for You have made all these things. For He spoke, and it was done; He commanded, and it stood fast."  Jeremiah 14:22; Psalm 33:9



O God, heavenly Father, who by Thy Son Jesus Christ hast promised to all those who seek Thy kingdom, and the righteousness thereof, all things necessary to their bodily sustenance; Send us, we beseech Thee, in this our necessity, such moderate rain and showers, that we may receive the fruits of the earth to our comfort, and to Thy honour; through Jesus Christ our Lord.  Amen.
