Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #592 (1870) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Almighty God, thy word is cast
Like seed upon the ground;
Oh, let the dew of heaven descend,
And shed its influence round.
2 Let not the foe of Christ and man
This holy seed remove;
May it take root in ev'ry heart,
And grow in faith and love!
3 Let not this world's deceitful cares,
Nor worldly wealth and joy,
Nor scorching beam, nor stormy blast,
The rising plant destroy.
4 Where'er the word of life is sown,
A large increase bestow,
That all who hear Thy message, Lord,
Its saving power may know. Topics: Parting Hymns Languages: English
