Let my teaching fall like rain and my speech settle like dew, like gentle rain on new grass, like showers on tender plants.
Drop as rain doth My doctrine; Flow as dew doth My sayings; As storms on the tender grass, And as showers on the herb,
My doctrine shall drop as rain, My speech flow down as dew, As small rain upon the tender herb, And as showers on the grass.
