The Seed Is Sown

lyricist: Margaret Snodgrass, 1885
Composer: John Kissinger

To Thee we sing

our glo­ri­ous king

Do Thou

O Sav­ior

hear us;

And as we bow be­fore Thee now

Oh

be Thou ve­ry near us.

The seed is sown

the seed is sown

In faith tho’ lit­tle know­ing;

The seed is sown

the seed is sown

Oh

care Thou for the grow­ing.

What we have heard from out Thy Word

Enrich it with Thy bless­ing;

Each wan­der­ing thought while Thou hast taught

We come to Thee con­fess­ing.

Where’er we be

still close to Thee

Oh

keep us

Thine for ev­er;

We would be true in all we do

And lose Thy bless­ing nev­er.
