#1221

 

 1  There shall be showers of blessing:

       This is the promise of love;

    There shall be seasons refreshing,

       Sent from the Savior above.

 

Showers of blessing,

   Showers of blessing we need;

Mercy-drops round us are falling,

   But for the showers we plead.

 

 2  There shall be showers of blessing —

       Precious reviving again;

    Over the hills and the valleys,

       Sound of abundance of rain.

 

Showers of blessing,

   Showers of blessing we need;

Mercy-drops round us are falling,

   But for the showers we plead.

 

 3  There shall be showers of blessing;

       Send them upon us, O Lord!

    Grant to us now a refreshing;

       Come, and now honor Thy Word.

 

Showers of blessing,

   Showers of blessing we need;

Mercy-drops round us are falling,

   But for the showers we plead.

 

 4  There shall be showers of blessing;

       O that today they might fall,

    Now as to God we're confessing,

       Now as on Jesus we call!

 

Showers of blessing,

   Showers of blessing we need;

Mercy-drops round us are falling,

   But for the showers we plead.

 

 5  There shall be showers of blessing,

       If we but trust and obey;

    There shall be seasons refreshing,

       If we let God have His way.

 

Showers of blessing,

   Showers of blessing we need;

Mercy-drops round us are falling,

   But for the showers we plead.
