156. Scattering Precious Seed

1 Scattering precious seed by the wayside,
Scattering precious seed by the hillside,
Scattering precious seed o'er the field, wide;
Scattering precious seed by the way.

Chorus:
Sowing in the morning,
Sowing at the noontide,
Sowing in the evening,
Sowing the precious seed by the way.

2 Scattering precious seed for the growing,
Scattering precious seed, freely sowing,
Scattering precious seed trusting, knowing,
Surely the Lord will send it the rain. [Chorus]

3 Scattering precious seed, doubting never,
Scattering precious seed, trusting ever,
Sowing the word with pray'r and endeavor,
Trusting the Lord for growth and for yield. [Chorus]
