Lord, I hear of showers of blessing,

by Elizabeth Codner

Representative text

As printed in The Church Hymnal (1941), no. 208 — the newest hymnal carrying it.

Verse 1

Lord, I hear of showers of blessing, Thou art scattering full and free; Showers, the thirsty soul refreshing; Let some drops now fall on me, Even me, even me, Let some drops now fall on me.

Verse 2

Pass me not, O gracious Father! Sinful though my heart may be; Thou might'st leave me, but the rather Let thy mercy rest on me. Even me, even me, Let some drops now fall on me.

Verse 3

Have I long in sin been sleeping? Long been slighting, grieving, thee? Has the world my heart been keeping? O forgive and rescue me! Even me, even me, Let some drops now fall on me.

Verse 4

Pass me not, O Holy Spirit! Thou canst make the blind to see; Testify of Jesus' merit, Speak the word of peace to me. Even me, even me, Let some drops now fall on me.
