Sow Your Seeds – v2

Sowing the seeds we are given
new life in the ground
sowing the seeds richly
across the face of the earth

Nothing to be left in our bags
empty when we are done
planted and watered in Your garden
our work here on earth

Watered with our gifts
offering our lives to Your hands
our part in Your plan
leaving the rest to You oh God

Letting them grow in the Son
in Your time alone
faithfully tending the earth
as You alone command
