God’s Supreme Power

(A)Drip down, heavens, from above,
And let the clouds pour down righteousness;

10 I will (A)rejoice greatly in the Lord,
My soul will be joyful in (B)my God;
For He has (C)clothed me with garments of salvation,
He has wrapped me with a robe of righteousness,
As a groom puts on a turban,
And (D)as a bride adorns herself with her jewels.
11 For as the (E)earth produces its sprouts,
And as a garden causes the things sown in it to spring up,
So the Lord [a]God will (F)cause (G)righteousness and praise
To spring up before all the nations.
