| Rizpah … took sackcloth, and spread it for her upon the rock, from the beginning of harvest until water dropped upon them out of heaven. (2 Sam. 21:10) |
| I set my face unto the Lord God, to seek by prayer and supplications, with fasting, and sackcloth, and ashes. (Dan. 9:3) |
| Thou hast turned for me my mourning into dancing: Thou hast put off my sackcloth, and girded me with gladness; to the end that my glory may sing praise to Thee, and not be silent. O Lord my God, I will give thanks unto Thee forever. (Psa. 30:11‑12) |
Nay, He careth; clouds of sadness
Quick dissolve in gracious rain;
God of all my joy and gladness,
He will tune my harp again:
I will sing Thy love long tried,
And Thy comforts multiplied. |
