The Cyber Hymnal ‎#2663

2663. Hear Us, O Savior!

1. Hear us, O Savior, while we pray,
Humbly our need confessing;
Grant us the promised show'rs today,
Send them upon us, O Lord!

Refrain
Send show'rs of blessing;
Send show'rs refreshing;
Send show'rs of blessing;
Send them, Lord, we pray!

2. Knowing Thy love, on Thee we call,
Boldly Thy throne addressing;
Pleading that show'rs of grace may fall,
Send them upon us, O Lord! [Refrain]

3. Trusting Thy Word that cannot fail,
Master we claim Thy promise;
Oh that our faith may now prevail,
Send us the show'rs, O Lord! [Refrain]
