1 There shall be showers of blessing,
This is Thy promise, O Lord,
Seasons of holy refreshing,
Under the power of Thy word.

Refrain:
Showers of blessing,
Showers of blessing shall fall,
Showers of blessing,
Giving refreshing to all.

2 There shall be showers of blessing,
Blessing of truth and of power;
Send them, O send them, we pray Thee,
Send them upon us this hour. [Refrain]

3 There shall be showers of blessing;
Why, Lord, the blessing delay?
Souls for Thy word do now famish,
Send us the showers, we pray. [Refrain]

4 There shall be showers of blessing,
Showers of glory and love;
Meekly, O Lord, we await them,
Copious rains from above. [Refrain]

5 There shall be showers of blessing;
Glory to God, they are here!
Souls are rejoicing in power,
Jesus is answering prayer. [Refrain]
