"POUR OUT A BLESSING"

Chorus 1
Pour out a blessing, pour out a blessing,
Give of your life in all you do.
Pour out a blessing, pour out a blessing,
Heaven will smile, and pour the blessings on you.

In a time of famine, lived a widow and her son.
They were hungry, and she said, "Little one,
I will now bake our last cake,
But after that we have no food left!"
To get some firewood, the woman went on a walk,
And met Elijah, the Prophet of God.
He said, "Help me, and if you feed me,
You will know that these words are true."

[Repeat Chorus 1]

The woman helped him and she gave unselfishly,
And through the famine they had plenty to eat.
How could that be? Well, now she could see
That all the words that he spoke were true!

Chorus 2
Pour out a blessing, pour out a blessing,
Give of your life in all you do.
Pour out a blessing, pour out a blessing,
Heaven will smile [Heaven will smile].

[Repeat Chorus 1]

And pour the blessings on you.
[Heaven will smile]
And pour the blessings on you.
[Heaven will smile]
And pour the blessings on you.
