Many, LORD, are asking, "Who will bring us prosperity?" Let the light of your face shine on us. Fill my heart with joy when their grain and new wine abound.
Let the light of your face shine on us
Numbers 6:24-26 " ' "The LORD bless you and keep you; the LORD make his face shine on you and be gracious to you; the LORD turn his face toward you and give you peace." ' "
Fill my heart
Acts 14:17 "Yet he has not left himself without testimony: He has shown you kindness by giving you rain from heaven and crops in their seasons; he provides you with plenty of food and fills your hearts with joy."
with joy

Isaiah 35:10 ... and those the LORD has rescued will return. They will enter Zion with singing; everlasting joy will crown their heads. Gladness and joy will overtake them, and sorrow and sighing will flee away.
Isaiah 65:14 "My servants will sing out of the joy of their hearts, but you (who forsake the LORD) will cry out from the anguish of heart and wail in brokenness of spirit."
Isaiah 65:18 "But be glad and rejoice forever in what I will create, for I will create Jerusalem to be a delight and its people a joy."
when their grain and new wine abound
Genesis 27:28 "May God give you heaven's dew and earth's richness--an abundance of grain and new wine."
Deuteronomy 28:45 All these curses will come on you. They will pursue you and overtake you until you are destroyed, because you did not obey the LORD your God and observe the commands and decrees he gave you.
Deuteronomy 28:51 They (a nation from far away) will devour the young of your livestock and the crops of your land until you are destroyed. They will leave you no grain, new wine or olive oil, nor any calves of your herds or lambs of your flocks until you are ruined.
