1. Send the rain to wait for greater power;
Cry aloud to Thee in tearful prayer:
On walls of great Jerusalem
We will pray Lord-the set time is come!
CHORUS
Send the rain, Lord; make bright clouds of pow’r;
Let the rain fall as a mighty show’r;
Send the rain, (O Lord), send the rain,(dear Lord),
It’s the time of the latter rain!
2. Send the rain to learn Thy Word far deeper;
Let Thy doctrine as the dew fall clear;
We’ll reach the unity of faith
And Thy knowledge-the set time is come!
3. Send the rain for deeper faith in healing
And to battle for the faith once giv’n;
The Sun with healing in His wings
Shall for us rise-the set time is come!
4. Send the rain for greater consecration;
Make us holy by Thy love divine:
The filth in flesh and spirit, cleanse
And redeem us-the set time is come!
5. Send a great revival Lord for Zion;
Let her shake the dust and rise and shine;
Be loosed from bands; her state reclaim;
Favour her, Lord-the set time is come!
