Refrain: Be not deceived, be not deceived, God is not mocked; For whatsoever a man soweth, Whatsoever a man soweth, That shall he also reap, That shall he also reap. 2 Sow evil deeds with careless hand And one sad day behold Thy garner filled with blighted hopes, And woes a hundred fold. [Refrain] 3 Sow seeds of faith and hope and love, Perchance with falling tears, A harvest home of peace and joy Will crown the work of years.
