I love this hymn. I have been humming and singing it a lot lately. I feel the mercy drops, but I am crying out for the showers!
...
"There shall be showers of blessing," This is the promise of love;
There shall be seasons refreshing, Sent from the Saviour above.
Showers of blessing, Showers of blessing we need:
Mercy-drops round us are falling, But for the showers we plead.
"There shall be showers of blessing": Oh, 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.
"And I will make them and the places round about my hill a blessing; and I will cause the shower to come down in his season; there shall be showers of blessing." Ezekiel 34:26
