169. Sowing the Seed

1 Scattering seeds of hope, peace and mercy,
Scattering seeds of blessings and love,
Scattering seeds for Jesus our Saviour,
Scattering for the harvest of God.

Chorus:
Sowing by the wayside,
Sowing o'er the earth wide;
Sowing for the Master,
Scattering precious seeds all the day.
Sowing by the wayside,
Sowing o'er the earth wide;
Sowing for the Master,
Scattering precious seeds all the day.

2 Scattering seeds of love by the dawning,
Scattering seeds of love at the noon,
Scattering seeds of love in the ev'ning,
Scattering seeds of love all the day. [Chorus]

3 Scattering seeds in ev'ry location,
Scattering seeds with singing and pray'r,
Scattering seeds to ev'ry dear nation,
Jesus will surely garner the fruit. [Chorus]
