Tune: | SHOWERS OF BLESSING |
Composer: | James McGlanahan, 1840-1907 |
1 "There shall be showers of blessing" –
This is the promise of love;
There shall be seasons refreshing,
Sent from the Savior above.
Refrain:
Showers, showers of blessing,
Showers of blessing we need:
Mercy drops round us are falling,
But for the showers we plead.
2 "There shall be showers of blessing" –
Precious reviving again;
Over the hills and the valleys
Sound of abundance of rain. [Refrain]
3 "There shall be showers of blessing" –
Send them upon us, O Lord;
Grant to us now a refreshing,
Come and now honor Thy Word. [Refrain]
4 "There shall be showers of blessing" –
O that today they might fall,
Now as to God we're confessing,
Now as on Jesus we call! [Refrain]
