_To the Reverend Mr. M――――, at Cambuslang._
_Edinburgh, June 8, 1742._
_Reverend and very dear Brother_,
I Heartily rejoice at the awakening at _Cambuslang_, and elsewhere.
I believe you will both see and hear of far greater things than these.
I trust that not one corner of poor _Scotland_ will be left unwatered
by the dew of GOD’s heavenly blessing. The cloud is now only rising as
big as a man’s hand; yet a little while, and we shall hear a sound of
an abundance of gospel rain. Our glorious _Emmanuel_ has given us much
of his divine presence since my arrival. O that it may accompany me to
_Cambuslang_! GOD willing, I hope to be with you the beginning of next
week; but cannot exactly tell the day. In the mean while, forget not
to pray for, reverend and dear brother,
Yours most affectionately in CHRIST,
_G. W._
