11. On what has now been sown

1 On what has now been sown,
Thy blessing, Lord, bestow;
The power is Thine alone
To make it spring and grow:
Do Thou the gracious harvest raise,
And Thou alone shalt have the praise.

2 To Thee our wants are known,
From Thee are all our powers;
Accept what is Thine own,
And pardon what is ours:
Our praises, Lord, and prayers receive
And through Thy Word a blessing give.

3 O grant that each of us,
Who meet before Thee here,
May meet together thus
When Thou and Thine appear,
And follow Thee to heaven our home;
E'en so, Amen, Lord Jesus, come!
