Great Revival Hymns ‎#152

152. The Raindrops

1 See the little raindrops, falling, falling,
On each pretty thirsty flower,
They have heard the blossoms calling, calling,
“Come for we need a shower.”

Refrain:
Busy little raindrops, precious little raindrops,
Happy little raindrops, they,
Bringing health and pleasure,
Blessings without measure,
All on a rainy day.

2 Down they hasten, gaily, falling, falling,
Rushing to the brooklets brink,
For they heard its sweet voice calling, calling,
“Come, for I need a drink.” [Refrain]

3 Do the little raindrops, falling, falling,
Bring a joy to someone’s heart,
When they hear the voices calling, calling,
Down from the clouds they start. [Refrain]
