11. Thou crownest the year with thy goodness. The harvest is the plainest display of the divine bounty, and the crown
of the year. Or, we may understand the expression to mean that God’s love
encircles the year as with a crown; each month has its gems, each day its
pearl. Unceasing kindness girdles all time with a belt of love. The providence
of God makes a complete circuit, and surrounds the year. And thy paths dropfatness. The footsteps of God, when he visits the land with rain, create
fertility. For spiritual harvests we must look to him, for he alone can give “times of refreshing” and
feasts of Pentecost.
