Let the good seed take root

verse

The Master is sowing the good seed of truth,

With hands that are patient and kind;

Alike on the fertile and bleak place it falls,

What soil in your heart will it find?

chorus

Let the good seed take root in your heart,

And bring forth a glorious yield.

If nourished in faith will a fruitage divine

In the harvest of life be revealed.

verse

Are sinful desires growing rank in your heart,

As baneful weeds cumber the ground?

Does love of the world, with its folly and pride,

Within your heart’s garden abound?

chorus

Let the good seed take root in your heart,

And bring forth a glorious yield.

If nourished in faith will a fruitage divine

In the harvest of life be revealed.

verse

Oh let the good seed in the sunshine of love,

And watered by heavenly dew,

Bring forth in your life the rich fruitage of grace,

That Jesus with gladness can view.

chorus

Let the good seed take root in your heart,

And bring forth a glorious yield.

If nourished in faith will a fruitage divine

In the harvest of life be revealed.

chorus

Let the good seed take root in your heart,

And bring forth a glorious yield.

If nourished in faith will a fruitage divine

In the harvest of life be revealed.
