A little seed lay fast asleep

Author: Mrs. Clara Writer Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #584 (1917) Lyrics: 1 A little seed lay fast asleep Beneath the earth's brown sod, But woke to life and hope when came The wondrous touch of God. 2 A sunbeam kissed the hidden spot, And warmed its earthy bed; The rain and dew gave kindly drink, Till soon it raised its head. 3 Up, up it pressed its way above, Up till the light was seen; Then came the sun, and decked it all In dainty garb of green. 4 It grew so straight, and tall, and fair, Each day it would unfold; The smiling sun placed on its head A shining crown of gold. 5 At last it stood, with thousands more, A golden ear of corn, God's gift to man, our daily food, From little seedlings born. 6 So children are the seeds God plants Within His garden fair; He loves and guards them every day; They have His constant care. 7 And they may grow so straight and pure, So good and full of grace; A crown of gold is theirs, when they Shall see the Saviour's face.
