“Blessed are ye that sow beside 
all waters" - Isa. 32:20




1.  SOW in the morn thy seed,

     At eve hold not thine hand

     To doubt and fear give thou no heed 

     Broadcast it o‘er the land.


2.  Thou know'st not which may thrive 

     The late or early sown

     Grace keeps the chosen germ alive 

     When and where ever strown.


3.  And duly shall appear

     In verdue, beauty, strength
  
     The tender blade, the stalk, the ear 

     And the full corn at length.


4.  Thou canst not toil in vain 

     Cold, heat, and moist, and dry 

     Shall foster and mature the grain 

     For gamers in the sky.


5.  Thence, when the glorious end

     The day of God is come

     The angel reapers shall descend

     And heav’n cry: Harvest home!  Amen
