Author: E. E. Hewitt Hymnal: SSV21913 #3 (1913) First Line: Children of the Kingdom Refrain First Line: Sowing, sowing, sowing seeds of light Lyrics: 1 Children of the Kingdom,
Sow the seeds of light;
Where there’s sadness, planting gladness
For a harvest bright;
Waiting fields surround you,
Sow the seeds of love,
Comfort bringing, toil with singing,
We shall reap above.
Chorus:
Sowing, sowing, sowing seeds of light,
Springing, springing in their beauty bright;
Children of the Kingdom,
Hear the Master say,
Reaping, reaping, in my keeping,
Work for me today.
2 Working for the Master,
Joy to do his will,
Kindness sowing, gladness growing,
His good word fulfill;
Loving eyes uplifting,
See a worldwide need!
Truth possessing, send a blessing,
Sow the gospel seed. [Chorus]
3 Go ye to all people,
‘Tis the Lord’s command;
Let salvation bless the nation,
Gladden ev’ry land.
when the reaping angels
Gather in the grain,
Swell the story of his glory,
Heaven’s grand refrain! [Chorus]
