Wheat that in dark earth many days has lain;

Thinking that He never would awake again,
Laid in the earth like grain that sleeps unseen:
Love is come again like wheat that springeth green.

Jesus who for three days in the grave had lain;
Quick from the dead the risen One is seen:
Love is come again like wheat that springeth green.

Jesus' touch can call us back to life again,
Fields of our hearts that dead and bare have been:
Love is come again like wheat that springeth green. Scripture: John 12:24 Used With Tune: FRENCH CAROL Text Sources: Oxford Book of Carols, alt.
