Showers of blessing - a memory from childhood.

I remember in childhood singing songs in school with other girls. Wondering,looking out of the window,distracted,enjoying,sleepy,talking in hushed tones with other distracted souls....but somehow amidst all the madness the songs stayed with me. An old song book which I have and treasure till now have all the Carmelite songs :) 


A beautiful song which I love and would want to give you the video link and lyrics below if you just want to read. Either way its a beautiful way to remember God's blessing

  1. 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.
  2. There shall be showers of blessing,
    Precious reviving again;
    Over the hills and the valleys,
    Sound of abundance of rain.
  3. There shall be showers of blessing;
    Send them upon us, O Lord;
    Grant to us now a refreshing,
    Come, and now honor Thy Word.
  4. 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!
  5. There shall be showers of blessing,
    If we but trust and obey;
    There shall be seasons refreshing,
    If we let God have His way.
