The hymn book is used by the Gospel Standard Strict Baptists in England and the United States and a few Old School or Primitive Baptist churches in the United States.

Maria Frances Anderson (pen name, L.M.N.; January 30, 1819 - October 13, 1895) was a 19th-century French-born American writer of prose [1] and hymns. [2] Her hymn, "Our country's voice is pleading", written in 1848, and published the following year in The Baptist Harp, came into common use.
The hymn's first known appearance in a hymnal, and in America, was in 1784 in Divine Hymns, or Spiritual Songs: for the use of Religious Assemblies and Private Christians compiled by Joshua Smith, a lay Baptist minister from New Hampshire. It became prevalent in American publications but not English ones.
The hymn was originally written as a Baptist hymn and it is also used by the Salvation Army. [4] The lyrics are based on the Biblical verse in Hosea 6:3. [5] Then we shall know, If we follow on to know the LORD: his going forth is prepared as the morning, and he shall come unto us as the rain, as the latter and former rain unto the earth
