PASTOR Yea, the sparrow hath found her a house, And the swallow a nest for herself, where she may lay PEOPLE: Blessed are they that dwell in Thy house: PASTOR Blessed is the man whose strength is in Thee; PEOPLE Passing through the valley of Weeping they make it a place of springs; Yea, the early rain covereth it with blessings.
