Author: Fanny J. Crosby Hymnal: Showers of Blessing #43 (1888) First Line: Through thy all-atoning merit Refrain First Line: Let thy blessing rest upon us Lyrics: 1 Through thy all-atoning merit,
In thy holy name alone,
Weak and helpless, yet believing,
Lord, we come before thy throne.
Refrain:
Let thy blessing rest upon us,
Like the early morning dew;
From the well of thy salvation
May we draw and drink anew.
2 Hear the prayers that now are rising
On the wings of faith to thee;
Feed our souls that now are hungry
With the bread of life so free. [Refrain]
3 We are looking, waiting, longing,
For a deeper work within;
For a perfect consecration
Of our hearts from ev’ry sin. [Refrain]
4 May the grace be with us ever,
In thy mercy may we hide,
And, through all our journey homeward,
Be thou still our Shield and Guide. [Refrain] Tune Title: [Through thy all-atoning merit]
Draw and Drink Anew
