O Lord, in mercy spare
The herbage of the field;
And, under thy paternal care,
May it abundance yield.
Restrain the burning ray,
And grant refreshing rains;
Restore the verdure from decay,
And drench the parchèd plains.
Then we our praise will show
To our preserver, God;
Our songs of melody shall flow,
And spread his name abroad.
