Sow the Seed Beside All Waters

Author: Robert Murray Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #6256 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Lyrics: 1. Sow the seed beside all waters, North and south and east and west, That our toiling sons and daughters In the harvest may be blessed. Tell the tidings of salvation ’Mid the storms of Labrador; Speak the word of consolation By the lone Pacific shore. 2. Where the forests old are falling, Yielding place to lawn and lea; Where the fisher plies his calling ’Mid the perils of the sea; Where the tide of commerce rushes Through the city’s crowded street, And unpitying Mammon crushes Poor and weak beneath his feet. 3. Where our brothers, sowing, reaping, Delving for the hidden ore, Now with joy and now with weeping Labor to increase their store; Where the stranger wanders lonely In the homeless wilderness, Tell of Jesus, Jesus only, Who alone can save and bless. 4. Tell how tenderly He careth For the weary and oppressed, How their burdens all He beareth, As He leads them to His rest; Tell that He, the Lord from heaven, Died for all and lives again, All through Him may be forgiven, All with Him in glory reign. 5. Tell His love beyond all telling, Seeking, following those who flee, Love rebellious hearts compelling To His service glad and free. Thus a precious harvest gather, North and south and east and west, To the glory of the Father, Son, and Spirit ever blest. Languages: English Tune Title: BETHANY (Smart)
