Gathering a Harvest

The fruits of the garden
ripe, ready for picking
gathering a harvest
from the good earth

Seeking to serve you
to pass on your glory
the gifts of your goodness
meaning to be shared

Workers in the Field

Oh to be workers in the field
harvesters of his bounty
gathering that which
others have sown
caring for the fields
others have planted
sowing our own seeds
of love, of faith
going where we are called
gathering in
a harvest of souls
