On Zion it doth sweetly fall: The grace of one descends on all. 4 E'en now our Lord doth pour The blessing from above, A kindly, gracious shower Of heart-reviving love, The former and the latter rain, The love of God and love of man. 5 In Him when brethren join, And follow after peace, The fellowship divine He promises to bless: His choicest graces to bestow, Where two or three are met below. 6 The riches of His grace In fellowship are given To Zion's chosen race, The citizens of heaven; He fills them with His choicest store, He gives them life for evermore.
