EVEN ME
LORD! I hear of showers of blessing
Thou art scattering, full and free,
Showers the thirsty soul refreshing—
Let some droppings fall on me,
Even me.
Pass me not, O gracious Father!
Lost and sinful though I be;
Thou mightst curse me, but the rather Let Thy mercy light on me,
Even me.
Pass me not, O tender Saviour !
Let me love and cling to Thee;
Fain I'm longing for Thy favor;
When Thou callest, call for me,
Even me.
Pass me not,
O mighty Spirit!
Thou canst make the blind to see;
Testify of Jesus' merit,
Speak the word of peace to me,
Even me
Have I long in sin been sleeping,
Long been slighting, grieving Thee?
Has the world my heart been keeping;
Oh! forgive and rescue me,
Even me.
Love of God! so pure and changeless;
Love of Christ! so rich and free:
Grace of God! so strong and boundless.
Magnify it all in me,
Even me.
Pass me not, almighty Spirit!
Draw this lifeless heart to Thee;
Impute to me the Saviour's merits;
Blessing others oh! bless me,
Even me.
