The Master’s Garden | Sunday Poem

Help me cultivate Thy garden;
Help me plant it, row by row;
Keep me sowing, gracious Master,
That every seed may thrive and grow…

Help me cultivate Thy garden;
Help me plant each precious seed;
Hope and faith and love and mercy –
All the things my soul doth need…

Help me cultivate Thy garden;
Blessed Master, stay Thou near;
Help me water it and watch it
As each seedling doth appear…

Help me cultivate Thy garden;
Keep me sowing, oh my Lord –
Help me labor in the garde
Where every flower is Thy reward!
