Hymn of the Week: There Shall Be Showers of Blessing

This morning I awoke to the sound of rain. It was a good sound; we have had no rain for several days and I knew it would be good for the plant life on my property. Rain makes things grow and keeps them healthy.

Similarly, God showers more blessings on me than I realize. I may think a day goes by without these showers, but this never happens. Every single day, I am blessed with more than I realize. His blessings provide me with breath, health, strength, and provision. God is good to us all.

This seemed like a good hymn on which to meditate about God's blessings today. Enjoy!

There Shall Be Showers Of Blessing

There shall be showers of blessing:
This is the promise of love;
There shall be seasons refreshing,
Sent from the Savior above.

Refrain

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,
Precious reviving again;
Over the hills and the valleys,
Sound of abundance of rain.

Refrain

There shall be showers of blessing;
Send them upon us, O Lord;
Grant to us now a refreshing,
Come, and now honor Thy Word.

Refrain

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!

Refrain

There shall be showers of blessing,
If we but trust and obey;
There shall be seasons refreshing,
If we let God have His way.
