Now, Lord, the heavenly seed is sown,
Be it thy servant's care,
Thy heavenly blessing to bring down
By humble, fervent prayer.
In vain we plant without thine aid,
And water too in vain:
Lord of the harvest, God of grace,
Send down thy heavenly rain.
Then shall our cheerful hearts and tongues
Begin this song divine;
Thou, Lord, hast giv'n the rich increase,
And be the glory thine.
