Sowing the Seed

Verse 1

Sowing the seed of truth, Patiently on we go, Sowing it here and there, Knowing not which will grow; Jesus beholds it fall, He will the work record; Patiently sow the seed, Leaving it with the Lord.

Chorus

Sowing the precious seed, Patiently on we go, Sowing it here, sowing it there, Knowing not which will grow.

Verse 2

Sowing at early dawn, Sowing in noontide ray, Scattering still at eve, After the busy day; Sowing the Word of life In the immortal soul, Wholly by sin undone, Freely by grace made whole.

Verse 3

Sowing from year to year, Ever till life is past; Knowing that we shall reap Glorious fruit at last; Jesus beholds it fall, He will our work reward; Patiently sow the seed, Leaving it with the Lord.
