Chapter 5
the sower by dinah mullick craik read for libravox dot org by linda marie nielsen vancouver b c in the dim dawning sow thy seed and in the evening stay not thy hand what it will bring forth wheat or weed who can know or who understand few will heed yet sow thy seed see the red sunrise before thee glows though close behind thee night lingers still flapping their fatal wings come the black foes following following over the hill no repose sow thou thy seed we too went sowing in glad sunrise now its twilight sad shadows fall where is the harvest why lift we our eyes what could we see here but god seeth all fast life flies sow the good seed
though we may cast it with trembling hand spirit half broken heart sick and faint his winds will scatter it over the land his rain will nourish and cleanse it from taint sinner or saint sow the good seed
