Author: C. Wesley, 1707-1788 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #279 (1917) Lyrics: 1 Lord, if at Thy command
The word of life we sow,
Watered by Thine almighty hand
The seed shall surely grow:
The virtue of Thy grace
A large increase shall give,
And multiply the faithful race
Who to Thy glory live.
2 Now then the ceaseless shower
Of gospel blessings send,
And let the soul-converting power
Thy ministers attend.
On multitudes confer
The heart-renewing love,
And by the joy of grace prepare
For fuller joys above. Topics: Banner, The Gospel; The Church and the Kingdom of God Missions; Showers of Blessing ; Ministry Commission of ; Prayer For Extension of Christ's Kingdom ; Sowing and Reaping; Missions (See also Kingdom of Christ) Languages: English Tune Title: SHERBOURNE
