Will open the heavenly stores

He breathes—the waters flow1

(The) Living God

Will open the heavenly stores

He breathes—the waters flow

With favorable rains bless the congregation

In the snare of sorrow like a trapped bird

With a multitude of fatherly charity

Prepare a meal

And say "Let a little water be brought"2

(The) Living God

Will open the heavenly stores

He breathes—the waters flow

(The) Living God

Will open the heavenly stores

He breathes—the waters flow

Remember Your mercy

Creator of the luminaries

Command Your clouds, they drip lights

With the righteousness of a king, the sweet singer3

Who said "O, that one would give me a drink of water"4

(The) Living God

Will open the heavenly stores

He breathes—the waters flow

(The) Living God

Will open the heavenly stores

He breathes—the waters flow

With rain of blessing bless the land

With rain of melody prune the land5

With rain of life

With rain of blessing

With rain of salvation

(The) Living God

Will open the heavenly stores

He breathes—the waters flow

He breathes—the waters flow
