The Little Sower for Sabbath Schools ‎#43

43. Even me

1 Lord, I hear the showers of blessings
Thou art scatt'ring full and free,
Showers the thirsty land refreshing,
Let some droppings fall on me.

Chorus:
Even me, Even me,
Let some droppings fall on me,
Even me, Even me.
Let some droppings fall on me.

2 Pass me not, O God my Father,
Sinful though my heart may be,
Never leave me, but the rather,
Let thy mercy light on me. [Chorus]

3 Pass me not, O gracious Saviour!
Let me live and cling to thee;
Fain I'm longing for thy favor;
Whils't thou'rt calling, O call me! [Chorus]

4 Pass me not, O mighty spirit!
Thou canst make the blind to see;
Witnesses of Jesus' merit!
Speak some word of pow'r to me. [Chorus]

5 Love of God so pure and changeless;
Blood of Christ--so rich, so free:
Grace of God--so strong and boundless,
Magnify it all in me! [Chorus]
