sow me like seed



Sow me like seed
in the furrowed ground
let me be raised for thee
let me be sown

Let me be your servant
your vessel, to be filled
let me be empty
let me be full

Cast me as a net
onto troubled waters
let me be sent out, to gather in
a harvest for the Lord

Let me be your message
given to the world
let me shine your Light
bearing your holy Word
