125. Beautiful Story to Tell

1 Sowing and reaping for Jesus our King,
Beautiful story to tell!
Spreading His Gospel in truth as we sing,
Beautiful story to tell.

Chorus:
Sowing the seed of the kingdom,
Sing it wherever you go,
Reapers shall gather together,
Whatsoever they sow.

2 Sowing the words of His wonderful love,
Beautiful story to tell!
Pointing the erring to heaven above,
Beautiful story to tell. [Chorus]

3 Sowing for Jesus, yes, sowing today,
Beautiful story to tell!
Sowing for Jesus, for He is the way,
Beautiful story to tell. [Chorus]

4 Sowing, still sowing for Jesus we send,
Beautiful story to tell!
Seed that we’ll harvest when cometh the end,
Beautiful story to tell. [Chorus]
