Every Seed You Sow

M-an's life is too short, 
A-s it's likened to a vapor; 
R-emain worthy before God, 
Y-ou will receive sacred favor.

R-eap what you have planted, 
O-n the twenty-ninth of June; 
S-ow the seeds of love, 
E-ach must be in tune.

R-efrain from doing evil, 
E-vade the endless sorrow; 
Y-ou will harvest the fruits of
E-very seed you
S-ow.
