why the pastures sing

Psalm 65:9-13 (JDV)

Psalm 65:9 You visit the land and water it profusely, enriching it greatly. God’s stream is filled with water, because you prepare the land in this way, providing people with grain.
Psalm 65:10 You soften it with showers and empower its growth, soaking its furrows and leveling its ridges.
Psalm 65:11 You crown the year with your goodness; your carts overflow with plenty.
Psalm 65:12 The wilderness pastures overflow, and the hills are clothed with joy.
Psalm 65:13 The pastures are clothed with flocks and the valleys covered with grain. They shout in triumph; in fact, they sing.

why the pastures sing

The pastures sing because God has faithfully brought them rain at the right time. The valleys clothed with grain sing for the same reason. We sing for the same reason as well. Our God is faithful to us long before we recognize that we need him.

Lord, great is thy faithfulness!
