THE LORD WILL ANSWER

The Call to Fast and Pray was heeded;

Many wept over sin, as they repented.

Their sins had led them to this distress;

Would the LORD really hear their prayers?

 

The LORD responded with deep pity;

He saw their plight and gave mercy.

He would respond with great zeal;

The weakened land, He would heal.

 

He would provide them needed grain;

He would give both former and latter rain.

The land would come alive with oil and wine;

The mercies and compassion of God are divine.

 

Let us exercise faith when we pray;

Let us not be upset if there is delay.

His people, He will surely redeem;

He will also cleanse them from sin!
