seeds so small, tumble, fall
on brown and fertile soil
with the sun when winter’s done
shoots of green uncoil
oats and wheat sunshine greet
growing ever higher
maize and corn meet the dawn
kissed in gold attire
scythe in swing groundward bring
chaff and seed high tossed
saving grain before the rain
nothing precious lost
seed to mill, soft flour spill
stir the oven’s heat
yeast to dough to slowly grow
bake the bread and eat
remember grace and lift a face
to God who give us all
the sun, the soil, the strength to toil
His name on which to call
