The Jewel ‎#41

41. Even Me

1 Lord, I hear of show'rs of blessings,
Thou art scattering full and free;
Showers the thirsty land refreshing,
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;
Thou might'st leave me, but the rather,
Let Thy mercy fall on me.
Even me, Even me,
Let some droppings fall on me.

3 Pass me not, O gracious Saviour,
Let me live and cling to Thee:
Fain I'm longing for Thy favor;
Whilst thou'rt calling, call for me.
Even me, Even me,
Let some droppings fall on me.

4 Pass me not, Thy lost one bringing;
Bind my heart, O Lord, to Thee;
Whilst the streams of life are springing,
Blessing others, O, bless me.
Even me, Even me,
Let some droppings fall on me.
