Cast Thy Bread upon the Waters

Author: Phoebe A. Hanaford Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #1115 Meter: 8.7.8.7 Lyrics: 1. Cast thy bread upon the waters, Thinking not ’tis thrown away; God Himself saith, thou shalt gather It again some future day. 2. Cast thy bread upon the waters; Wildly though the billows roll, They but aid thee as thou toilest Truth to spread from pole to pole. 3. As the seed, by billows floated, To some distant island lone, So to human souls benighted, That thou flingest may be borne. 4. Cast thy bread upon the waters, Why wilt thou still doubting stand? Bounteous shall God send the harvest If thou sowest with liberal hand. Languages: English Tune Title: AGAWAM

Cast thy bread upon the waters

Author: Anon. Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #1064 (1886) Lyrics: 1 Cast thy bread upon the waters, Thinking not 'tis thrown away; God himself saith, "Thou shalt gather It again some future day." 2 Cast thy bread upon the waters; Wildly though the billows roll, They but aid thee as thou toilest Truth to spread from pole to pole. 3 As the seed, by billows floated To some distant island lone, So to human souls benighted That thou sowest may be borne. 4 Cast thy bread upon the waters; Why wilt thou still doubting stand? Bounteous shall God send the harvest, If thou sow with liberal hand. 5 Give them freely of thy substance; O'er his cause the Lord doth reign: Cast thy bread and toil with patience, Thou shalt labor not in vain.
