| When the poor and needy seek water, and there is none, and their tongue faileth for thirst, I the Lord will hear them, I … will not forsake them. I will open rivers in high places, and fountains in the midst of the valleys: I will make the wilderness a pool of water, and the dry land springs of water. (Isa. 41:17‑18) |
| They took … wells digged, vineyards, and oliveyards, and fruit trees in abundance: so they did eat, and were filled, and became fat, and delighted themselves in Thy great goodness. (Neh. 9:25) |
Is the wilderness before you,
Desert land where drought abides?
Heavenly springs shall there restore you,
Fresh from God’s exhaustless tides. |
In the desert God will teach thee
What the God that you have found,
Patient, gracious, powerful, holy;
All His grace shall there abound. |
