Hear the voice of the father,
Saying whosoever will, let him drink of the

For He said “I will pour my spirit upon,
Your sons and your daughters”
So if you’re thirsty and dry,
Look up to the sky

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

Showers of blessing we need;
Mercy-drops round us are falling,
But for the showers we plead.
