Tune: | EVEN ME |
Composer: | William B Bradbury, 1816-1868 |
1 Lord, I hear of showers of blessing,
Thou art scattering, full and free
Showers, the thirsty land refreshing;
Let some droppings fall on me.
Refrain:
Even me, Even me,
Let some droppings fall on me.
2 Pass me not, O God, our Father!
Sinful though my heart may be;
Thou mightst curse me, but the rather
Let Thy mercy light on me.
Refrain:
Even me, Even me,
Let Thy mercy light on me.
3 Pass me not, O gracious Saviour,
Let me live and cling to Thee;
For I'm longing for Thy favor;
Whilst Thou'rt calling, O call me.
Refrain:
Even me, Even me,
Whilst Thou'rt calling, O call me.
4 Pass me not, O mighty Spirit,
Thou canst make the blind to see;
Witnesser of Jesus' merit,
Speak some word of power to me.
Refrain:
Even me, Even me.
Speak some word of power to me.
5 Love of God so pure and changeless,
Blood of Christ, so rich, so free;
Grace of God, so strong and boundless;
Magnify it all in me.
Refrain:
Even me, Even me,
Magnify it all in me.
AMEN.
