385.  LORD, I HEAR OF SHOWERS OF BLESSING,

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.

Pass me not, O God, my Father, Sinful though my heart may be;
Thou mightst leave me, but the rather; Let Thy mercy light on me;
Even me, even me,Let Thy mercy light on me.

Pass me not, O gracious Savior, Let me live and cling to Thee;
I am longing for Thy favor; hilst Thou’rt calling, O call me;
Even me, even me, hilst Thou’rt calling, O call me.

Pass me not, O mighty Spirit! hou canst make the blind to see;
Witnesser of Jesus’ merit, peak the Word of power to me;
Even me, even me, peak the Word of power to me.

Have I been in sin long sleeping, Long been slighting, grieving Thee?
Has the world my heart been keeping?O forgive and rescue me;
Even me, even me,O forgive and rescue me.

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;
Even me, even me, Magnify them all in me.

Pass me not; but pardon bringing, Bind my heart, O Lord, to Thee;
Whilst the streams of life are springing, Blessing others, O bless me;
Even me, even me, Blessing others, O bless me.

Eliz­a­beth H. Cod­ner, in The Re­viv­al, Ap­ril 28, 1860
