SOW THY SEED.

By D. E. W.

BY D. E. W.

[“In the morning sow thy seed; and in the evening withhold not thine hand: for thou knowest not whether shall prosper, either this or that, or whether they both shall be alike good,”. Eccl. 11: 6.]

Sow thy seed in the morning hours, While dew is yet upon the flowers; Sow thy seed while noontide beams; Sow thy seed while twilight gleams.

Sow, though tears bedim thine eyes; “Sow,” saith the Master from the skies; Sow thy seed and weary not; None of thy labors are forgot.

In reaping time the Lord will come And bear thee to thy heavenly home, Where toils and sorrows all are o’er. Thou shalt be weary nevermore.

Then sow thy seed with faithful hand; Sow everywhere; ’tis God’s command; Though some may fall on stony ground, Much precious fruit shall yet be found.
