Seeds, Friends and Success

We sow the seeds of kindness
and water them with love.
Then feed with truth,
found in the Word of God.

The land where seeds are planted
is vast and never ends.
It lies among the valleys
and the hills that we call friends.

Some need someone to lean on,
while others search for truth.
Each time we plant Your seeds Lord,
we refer our friends to You.

Some seeds will only wither,
never taken to the heart.
But some will be well cared for
and will make a brand new start.

We are but Your gardeners
who strive and do our best.
But You, oh loving Father
are the secret to success!
