Hymn 314
James Montgomery, adapted, words
Traditional Melody, Isle of Arran, arr. by R. A. Smith, music
Sow in the morn thy seed,
At eve hold not thy hand;
To doubt and fear give thou no heed;
Broadcast it o’er the land.
It duly shall appear
In verdure, beauty, strength,
The tender blade, the stalk, the ear;
The full corn comes at length.
The harvest now is white;
Lift up thine eyes, behold,
Illumed by Love’s transforming light,
God’s blessings manifold.
Readings
Readings from the Bible, and correlative passages from Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures.
Prayer

Hymn 97
Thomas Hastings, adapted, words
Frank G. Ilsley, music
He that goeth forth with weeping,
Bearing still the precious seed,
Never tiring, never sleeping,
Soon shall see his toil succeed;
Showers of rain will fall from heaven,
Then the cheering sun will shine;
So shall plenteous fruit be given,
Through an influence all divine.
Sow thy seed, be never weary,
Let not fear thy thoughts employ;
Though the prospect seem most dreary,
Thou shalt reap the fruits of joy:
Lo, the scene of verdure brightening,
See the rising grain appear;
Look again, the fields are whitening,
Harvest time is surely here.

Hymn 394
Jonathan F. Bahnmaier Catherine Winkworth, Tr., words
Ignace J. Pleyel, music
Word of Life, most pure, most strong,
Lo, for thee the nations long;
Spread, till from its dreary night
All the world awakes to light.
Lo, the ripening fields we see,
Mighty shall the harvest be;
But the reapers still are few,
Great the work they have to do.
Lord of harvest, let there be
Joy and strength to work for Thee,
Till the nations far and near
See Thy light, Thy law revere.
