Take the time to prepare the soil – v3

We are to love
to tend God’s garden
our hope in him
in the Lord forever

Water with the word
the life of Christ Jesus
the truth in the scripture
the revelation of God’s love

Take time to prepare
to nurture the soil
each heart a vineyard
our hope from above

Seed for the soil
the grace of our Savior
hope of eternity
in God’s message of love

Take time to prepare
to tend these gardens
a harvest for God
when we share in the work
