Parable of the Sower
Parable of the Sower
By Bettye Locklair
Tune: Here We Go Round the Mulberry Bush
A sower went out to sow his seed, sow his seed, sow his seed.
A sower went out to sow his seed. Some fell along the path.
The birds all came and ate it up, ate it up, ate it up.
The birds all came and ate it up, so it never grew.
Some seed fell on rocky ground, rocky ground, rocky ground.
Some seed fell on rocky ground, and this is how it grew..
It sprang right up but had no depth, had no depth, had no depth.
It sprang right up but had no depth. The sun burned it all up.
Some seed fell among the thorns, among the thorns, among the thorns.
Some seed fell among the thorns, and this is how it grew.
It grew until the cares of life, the cares of life the cares of life.
It grew until the cares of life and riches choked it out.
Other seed fell on good ground, on good ground, on good ground.
Other seed fell on good ground, and this is how it grew.
Thirty, sixty, a hundred fold, a hundred fold, a hundred fold.
Thirty, sixty, a hundred fold. It grew a lot of fruit!
The type of ground is like the heart, like the heart, like the heart.
The type of ground is like the heart, the seed's the word of God.
The hard path heart will not believe.
The rocky heart falls when trials come.
The heart among thorns gets caught up with life.
The good heart produces fruit!
