A prayer for rain



















("Prayer for Rain" statue - Champaign, 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 honor, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
