O' Seed
O' seed of minute proportions
So small, a minuscule apportion
From God, you were sent
From a low place, you were meant for a glorious ascent
Yes, low, down into the ground you go
Covered with dirt first before you can grow
Away from all, stepped on, unseen and unpopular
But quietly you grow and rise like a star
The dirt of lies, gossip, manipulation, and defamation of character
Yes! They cover you in the ground of seeming disaster
But with rain, time, and the benevolent Sun you will grow
So remain quiet, in divine time you will be beautiful and they will see and know
