Heavenly Sower, Thou Hast Scattered
Author: Anna Hoppe Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7.7 Appears in 4 hymnals Scripture: Matthew 13:24-30 First Line: Heav'nly Sower, Thou hast scattered Lyrics: 1 Heavenly Sower, Thou hast scattered
Precious seed upon Thy field,
That a harvest might be gathered,
Rich and fruitful in its yield.
Gracious Lord, thou hast defended,
Nurtured, watered, guarded, tended
This so precious seed of Thine,
Springing up in soil divine.
2 Lo, Thy field its fruits has yielded,
Where Thy kingdom's seed was sown;
gospel rain from drought has shielded,
Pentecostal winds have blown;
Where Thy Sun of Grace in splendor
Shed its warming rays so tender,
There Thy seed has taken root,
There it blossomed into fruit.
3 Guard Thy gospel field, dear Master,
Tares abound upon the soil.
Save Thy harvest from disaster,
Let no foe Thy seed despoil.
When, upon Thy glad returning,
Tares and chaff are doomed to burning,
Then within Thy garner, Lord,
May the precious wheat be stored.

For harvest each prepares.

They are ripening, ripening,
Ripening for the harvest;
The wheat for the garner,
The tares for the burning,
The reapers soon will come.

And ready do appear
For work of angel reapers,
The harvest must be near. [Chorus]

In love and works abound;
That we may in the harvest
Among the wheat be found. [Chorus] Used With Tune: [Together they are growing]

Beyond the Beauty and the Awe
Author: Carl P. Daw, Jr., b. 1944 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 2 hymnals Scripture: Matthew 13 Lyrics: 1 Beyond the beauty and the awe,
beyond the fear and dread,
we long, O God, to hear your word,
to taste your transformed bread.
2 Our lives feel torn between the world,
whose needs are grimly real,
and empty talk of peace and joy
with distant, vague appeal.
3 Oh, teach us how to hear your voice
despite the traffic’s din,
to keep the blasts of rancor out
and let your Spirit in.
4 In sound or silence, sight or smell,
may we some token find
that makes your living presence known
to body, soul, and mind.
5 Then help us live as Jesus taught,
as light and salt and yeast,
that others may be brought to share
your promise and your feast.
