Isaiah 2:2
Now it will come about that in the last days the mountain of the house
of the LORD will be established as the chief of the mountains, and will be
raised above the hills; And all the nations will stream to it.
Zechariah 14:9, 16-17
And the LORD shall be king over all the earth: in that day shall there be
one LORD, and His name one {His name the only one}.
Then it will come about that any who are left of all the nations that went
against Jerusalem will go up from year to year to worship the King, the
LORD of hosts, and to celebrate the Feast of Booths. And it will be that
whichever of the families of the earth does not go up to Jerusalem to
worship the King, the LORD of hosts, there will be no rain on them.
One King
One name
One Spirit
One body
One voice
One Rock
Come together, one body in unison with one voice
Give unto the LORD the glory due unto his name:
bring an offering, and come before him:
worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness. --1 Chron 5:13, Ps 29:2
Let the glory cloud of His presence fill the temple
Stand on the Rock and sing a new song
Many will see and fear and put their trust in the LORD! --Ps 40:1-3
Drink from the Rock
For we were all baptized by one Spirit into one body— ... —and we were
all given the one Spirit to drink. --1 Cor 12:13
... for they drank from the spiritual rock that accompanied them, and that
rock was Christ. -1 Cor 10:4
Worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness
Drink in His presence
Drink from His glory cloud
Drink in His rain
Drink in His reign.
One Rock
One voice
One body
One Spirit
One name
One King over all the earth.
2 Chronicles 5:13
The trumpeters and singers joined in unison, as with one voice, to give
praise and thanks to the LORD. Accompanied by trumpets, cymbals and
other instruments, they raised their voices in praise to the LORD and
sang: "He is good; his love endures forever." Then the temple of the LORD
was filled with a cloud.

Proverbs 16:15
In the light of the king's countenance {face} is life; and His favour is as a
cloud of the latter rain.
The King's rain is associated with life and His favor.
From http://net.bible.org/verse.php?book=Pro&chapter=16&verse=15
* “the light of the face of the king.” This expression is a way of describing
the king’s brightened face, his delight in what is taking place. This would
mean life for those around him.
* “latter rain” (so KJV, ASV). The favor that this expression represents is
now compared to the cloud of rain that comes with the “latter” rain or
harvest rain. The point is that the rain cloud was necessary for the
successful harvest; likewise the king’s pleasure will ensure the success
and the productivity of the people under him. E.g., also Psalm 72:15-17;
the prosperity of the land is portrayed as a blessing on account of the
ideal king.
Proverbs 16:15 NLT
When the king smiles, there is life; His favor refreshes like a gentle
rain.
The King's rain is associated with life and His favor; His smile.
Psalm 72:15-19
Long may He {the King} live!
... May gold from Sheba be given Him.
... May people ever pray for Him and bless Him all day long.
Let grain abound throughout the land;
... on the tops of the hills may it sway.
... Let its fruit flourish like Lebanon; let it thrive like the grass of the field.
May His name endure forever;
... may it continue as long as the sun.
... All nations will be blessed through Him, and they will call Him blessed.
Praise be to the LORD God, the God of Israel,
... who alone does marvelous deeds.
Praise be to His glorious name forever;
... may the whole earth be filled with His glory.
Amen and Amen.
Worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness
Drink in His presence
Drink from His glory cloud
Drink in His rain
See the King's favor
See the King's smile
See the successful harvest
Drink in His reign.
