  1. Lord, I hear of showers of blessing
    Thou art scatt'ring full and free,
    Showers the thirsty land refreshing;
    Let some portion fall on me,
    Even me, even me,
    Let some portion fall on me.
  2. Pass me not, gracious Father,
    Sinful though my heart may be;
    Thou might'st leave me, but the rather
    Let thy mercy light on me.
    Even me, Even me,
    Let thy mercy light on me.
  3. Pass me not, tender Saviour,
    Let me love and cling to thee;
    I am longing for thy favor;
    Whilst thour't calling, O call me.
    Even me, Even me,
    Whilst thour't calling, O call me.
  4. 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.
    Amen.

  1. I can hear my Saviour calling,
    I can hear my Saviour calling,
    I can hear my Saviour calling,
    'Take thy cross and follow Me.'
  2. I'll go with him thro' the garden,
    I'll go with him thro' the garden,
    I'll go with him thro' the garden,
    I'll go with him all the way.
  3. He will give me grace and glory,
    He will give me grace and glory,
    He will give me grace and glory,
    And go with me all the way.
  4. Where he leads me I will follow,
    Where he leads me I will follow,
    Where he leads me I will follow,
    I'll go with him all the way.
    Amen.
