Lyrics
Lord, I hear of showers of blessing, You are scat'ring* full and free;
Showers the thirsty land refreshing;
Let some drops now fall on me;
*Thou art scattering (original text)
Chorus- Even me, need Your blessings, even me, dear Lord, even me. Favor I need, simply I ask, even me, dear Lord, even me.
5. Have I been in sin long sleeping,
Long been slighting, grieving You*?
Has the world my heart been keeping?
O forgive and rescue me.
*Thee (original text)
Chorus-
4. Pass me not, O mighty Spirit!
You can* make the blind to see;
Witnesser of Jesus' merit,
Speak the Word of power to me.
*Thou canst (original text)
Chorus-
*If four stanzas are sung
6. 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.
