Be careful what you sow, For seed will surely grow, And he who sows good seed today, Shall reap with joy tomorrow.

Chorus

Be careful what you sow, For seed will surely grow, And he who sows good seed today, Shall reap with joy tomorrow.

Chorus

Be careful what you sow, For seed will surely grow, And he who sows good seed today, Shall reap with joy tomorrow.

Verse 4

Then let us sow good deeds, And not the briars and weeds; Then harvest time Its joys shall bring, And when we reap, Our hearts shall sing, And he who sows good seed today, Shall reap good seed tomorrow; And he who sows good seed today, Shall reap good seed tomorrow.

Be careful what you sow, For seed will surely grow, And he who sows good seed today, Shall reap with joy tomorrow.
