LORD, I hear of showers of blessing,
Thou art scattering full and free,
Showers the thirsty land refreshing;
Let some drops now fall on me.
Even me, even me,
Let some drops now fall on me.
Even me, even me,
Let some drops now fall on me.
2
Pass me not, O gracious Father!
Sinful though my heart may be;
Thou might’st leave me, but the rather
Let Thy mercy fall on me.
3
Pass me not, O tender Saviour!
Let me love, and cling to Thee:
I am longing for Thy favour;
Whilst Thou’rt calling, call for 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.
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.
6
Pass me not! Thy lost one bringing,
Bind my heart, O Lord, to Thee:
While the streams of life are springing,
Blessing others, oh, bless me.
