5. SHOWERS OF BLESSING

There shall be showers of blessing
This is the promise of love
There shall be season refreshing
Sent from the saviour above

CH : 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
Send them upon us, 0 Lord,
Grant to us now a refreshing,
Come and now honour Thy word.

6. ALL THINGS BRIGHT AND BEAUTIFUL

All things bright and beautiful
All creatures great and small,
All things wise and wonderful,
The good God made them all,

Each little flower that opens
Each little bird that sings,
He made their glowing colours,
He made their tiny wings.

The purple headed mountains,
The river running by,
The sunset and the morning,
That brightens up the sky,

The cold wind in the winter,
The pleasant summer sun,
The ripe fruits in the country,
He made them every one.
