1 “Go and sow beside all waters!”
Is the loving Lord’s command,
“If my blessedness on earth you’d truly know,
Cast the precious seed about you
With a glad and willing hand,
But remember you will reap just what you sow.

Chorus:
What you sow,
What you sow,
For the Master as you journey here below,
Seeds of everlasting life,
Or of discord, pain, and strife,
O remember you will reap just what you sow.

2 He that soweth to the spirit,
Spending talents, strength, and time,
For the speeding of the Gospel far and wide,
In his heart shall hear the joy-bells
Ring with sweet exultant chime,
Gain eternal life upon the other side. [Chorus]

3 Go and so, tho’ long the waiting
For the ripen’d fields of grain,
Be not weary in His service here below,
When the toiling time is over
A reward you shall obtain,
But remember you will reap just what you sow. [Chorus]
