SCATTER SEED.

In the furrows of thy life Scatter seed. Small may be thy spirit field, But a goodly crop 'twill yield; Sow the kindly word and deed— Scatter seed.
Sun and shower aid thee now; Scatter seed. Who can tell where grain may grow? Winds are blowing to and fro; Doing good thy simple creed, Scatter seed.
Up; the morning flies away; Scatter seed. Hand of thine must never tire, Heart must keep its pure desire. While thy brothers faint and bleed, Scatter seed.
Though thy work should seem to fail, Scatter seed. Some may fall on stony ground; Flower and blade are often found In the clefts we little heed; Scatter seed.
Springtime always dawns for thee; Scatter seed. Ope thy spirit's golden store, Stretch thy furrows more and more, God will give thee all thy need. Scatter seed.
