Rain of Heaven

Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 47 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 72:6 First Line: As show'rs on meadows newly mown Lyrics: 1 As show'rs on meadows newly mown, Jesus shall shed his blessings down, Crown'd with whose life infusing drops, Earth shall renew her blissful crops. 2 Lands that beneath a burning sky, Have long been desolate and dry, Th' effusions of his love shall share, And sudden greens and herbage wear. 3 The dews and rains, in all their store, Drenching the pastures o'er and o'er, Are not so copious as that grace, Which sanctifies and saves our race. 4 As in soft silence vernal show'rs Descend and cheer the fainting flow'rs, So in the secrecy of love Falls the sweet infl'ence from above. 5 That heav'nly infl'ence let me find In holy silence of the mind, While ev'ry grace maintains it bloom, Diffusing wide its rich perfume. 6 Nor let these blessings be confin'd To me, but pour'd on all mankind, Till earth's wild wastes in verdure rise, And a young Eden bless our eyes.
