Author: | Elizabeth Codner |
Tune: | [Lord, I hear of showers of blessing] |
Composer: | Bradbury |
1 Lord, I hear of showers of blessing
Thou art scatt'ring full and free--
Show'rs the thirsty land refreshing;
Let Thy blessing fall on me--
Even me, even me,
Let Thy blessing fall on me.
2 Pass me not, O gracious Father,
Sinful though my heart may be;
Thou mightst leave me, but the rather
Let Thy mercy light on me,
Even me, even me,
Let Thy blessing fall on me.
3 Pass me not, O tender Savior,
Let me love and cling to Thee;
I am longing for Thy favor;
Whilst Thou’rt calling, O call me,
Even me, even me,
Let Thy blessing fall on me.
4 Pass me not, O mighty Spirit,
Thou canst make the blind to see;
Witnesser of Jesus’ merit,
Speak the word of power to me,
Even me, even me,
Let Thy blessing fall on me.
5 Love of God, so pure and changeless;
Blood of Christ, so rich and free,
Grace of God, so strong and boundless;
Magnify them all in me,
Even me, even me,
Let Thy blessing fall on me.
